President Akufo-Addo has admitted to Ghana’s economic crisis, describing it as a ‘historic’ development.

Addressing the nation on Sunday evening, the President conceded to the country’s ballooning debt stock, rising inflation, free fall of the local currency, and the depletion of macroeconomic variables.

According to him, the situation is due to many ‘malevolent forces’ which are currently working together.
