Bawumia speaks on economy today at TESCON event

Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is expected to speak on the economic state of the country later today.

Following the continuous price hikes on fuel and commodities and the depreciation of the cedi, there have been calls for Dr Bawumia as the leader of the Economic Management Team to address the issues publicly.

Subsequently, his spokesperson, Gideon Boako told Asempa FM on Tuesday, March 22, 2022, that his boss will speak on the economy at a public forum this month.

Already, the government has attributed the ailing economy to the Covid-19 pandemic and the Ukraine-Russia crisis.

On the back of this, Dr Bawumia will be expected to address how these factors have impacted the economy, as well as measures the government has taken to address the situation.
