He, therefore, called on Ghanaians not to jubilate yet since the tables can turn around anytime soon.
“The plummeting fortunes of China, and to think that most of our traders are no longer externalizing our dollars outside of the country has also impacted. I think it is early days yet to start jubilating. The stability of the currency so far, it is not necessarily any stellar effort by the central bank even though the forward sale of currency is useful,” the founding president of IMANI-Africa told the media.
