Governor of the Bank of Ghana (BoG), Dr Ernest Ato Addison has reaffirmed the bank’s commitment to curbing inflation to a single digit.
“The Bank of Ghana is fully committed to bringing inflation back within our single-digit objective, presently the inflation outlook is broadly supportive and positive,” the Governor stated.
The governor’s remarks come as the country completes its third review process with the IMF, which aims to secure the release of additional financial support.
The IMF staff team, on Thursday, October 4, 2024 met with the Finance Minister, Mohammed Amin Adam, the Bank of Ghana Governor, Ernest Addison, along with representatives from various government agencies.
Over the past few weeks, the Governor indicated that the BoG had collaborated closely with IMF teams to provide comprehensive data on the economy.
“We are grateful for the maximum cooperation as we end the Mission, this should hopefully lead to approval at the IMF Executive Board level and the release of another tranche of IMF support,” Dr. Addison said.
Dr. Addison highlighted recent trends in inflation rates, revealing that inflation peaked at 25.8% by the end of the first quarter, before dropping to 20.4% by the end of August.
However, the latest figures for the third quarter showed a slight increase to 21.5%, primarily due to rising food prices. “It is not unusual to see intermittent upticks in inflation,” he explained.
The Bank is determined to maintain a stable monetary policy to manage inflation effectively. “We will continue to monitor these developments and ensure that inflation stays within our target over the medium term,” Dr. Addison affirmed.
In addition to addressing inflation, the Bank of Ghana is focused on strengthening foreign exchange reserves, aiming for at least three months of import cover. The governor cited stronger external sector performance, driven by higher gold production and remittances, as contributing factors.
“Our Gold for Reserve programme is providing the much-needed support for this reserve build-up,” he added.
Furthermore, the Bank is committed to ensuring exchange rate flexibility to mitigate economic shocks.
Dr. Addison noted that most banks are ahead of schedule in implementing their recapitalization plans following a recent debt exchange.
As the economic landscape continues to evolve, the Bank of Ghana remains vigilant. “We will continue to monitor emerging risks in the economy and respond with prudent policy interventions,” he concluded.
“This will ensure that our key objectives of safeguarding our price and financial stability mandate are protected.”
With these assurances, stakeholders in the Ghanaian economy are hopeful for a swift return to stability and growth as the IMF discussions progress.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has announced that Ghana has made remarkable progress in its debt restructuring efforts.
Mr. Stéphane Roudet, Mission Chief for Ghana, emphasised that “Ghana has made remarkable progress on its public debt restructuring.”
Following meetings in Accra from September 24 to October 4, 2024 IMF staff and the Ghanaian authorities reached a staff-level agreement on economic policies and reforms necessary to conclude the third review of the 36-Month Extended Credit Facility (ECF) program.
Once this review is approved by IMF Management and the IMF Executive Board, Ghana will gain access to approximately US$360 million in financing.
On debt restructuring, Mr Roudet explained that after successfully restructuring domestic debt last year and reaching an agreement with Ghana’s Official Creditors Committee (OCC) under the G20 Common Framework in June, the government has announced the successful completion of the consent solicitation to restructure its Eurobonds, with the exchange planned to take place in the coming weeks.
Mr. Stéphane Roudet noted that performance under the IMF-supported program has been generally satisfactory with all end-June 2024 quantitative targets met and continued progress on key structural reforms, despite some delays. The authorities’ policy and reform efforts have continued to deliver encouraging results.
He noted that economic growth in the first half of 2024 exceeded expectations, primarily fuelled by mining, construction and information and communication activities, with a broadening of the sources of growth across sectors during the second quarter.
Inflation has continued to decline, though a recent dry spell affecting the Northern regions is expected to adversely impact agricultural output, potentially constraining growth and adding pressure on food prices for the remainder of the year.
Mr. Roudet stated that the government’s policy response should help mitigate these risks, and the Bank of Ghana is committed to maintaining a tight monetary policy stance to support the continued decline in inflation.
Fiscal performance in 2024 has been strong, and Ghana is on track to achieve a primary surplus of 0.5 percent of GDP, despite emerging spending pressures from the recent drought in the northern regions and difficulties in the energy sector.
IMF Discussions with the Ghanaian authorities centered on reforms to enhance energy sector sustainability and transparency, as well as policies to strengthen revenue collections and expenditure controls leading up to the December elections.
The IMF team also discussed efforts to strengthen key social protection programs to shield the most vulnerable from the impacts of difficult economic circumstances and ongoing policy adjustments.
The authorities are committed to pursuing good-faith efforts to reach an agreement with other commercial external creditors consistent with program parameters and comparability of treatment principles.
The external sector has seen considerable improvement in 2024, driven by strong exports -particularly gold – and higher remittances, with international reserves accumulating beyond program targets. Financial stability has been maintained, with progress on bank recapitalisation and increased bank profitability.
The IMF staff team met with Finance Minister Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam, Bank of Ghana Governor Ernest Addison and their teams, along with representatives from various government agencies.

In an address read for him, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo reiterated his commitment towards the transformation of the nation through education. He explained that the huge budget support towards the educational sector was due to the fact that education served as the source of the requisite manpower for the transformation of the nation.
The President praised all Ghanaian teachers for their dedication towards the training of the nation’s human resources, which was very critical for the development of the nation.
Nana Akufo-Addo eulogised all stakeholders in the nation’s education space and urged them to continue working hard towards the sustenance of the gains made in the sector in the country.
Prudent Policies
The Education Minister, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum, on his part assured teachers of his readiness to continue putting in place prudent policies that would create an enabling environment for effective teaching and learning.
He said “We mean business when it comes to education development in the country because we believe education held the key to economic transformation and poverty reduction”
Dr Adutwum who is also the Member of Parliament for Bosomtwe mentioned that all the policies being rolled out by the Education Ministry were geared towards leap-frogging towards the attainment of 21st education for Ghanaian students.
He mentioned for instance that the introduction of the double-track system was to help increase enrolment adding that next academic year 70 per cent of SHS in the country will be out of the double-track system due to the strategic building of school infrastructure across the country.
Caution Note
The Registrar of the National Teaching Council, Dr Christian Addai-Poku, in his welcome address, stated that the policies and practices it had put in place were among the best in the world and were helping to advance the teaching profession in the country.
“Let no one whittle down the standards and permit cheap entry requirements into the profession. Our requirements should remain as rigorous as those of doctors, nurses, lawyers, accountants, engineers and others,” he said.
“The Ghana Teacher Licensure Examination remains one of the best quality assurance measures to ensure that only those who fit for purpose get engaged in our schools. It will be sad to see the licensure examination sacrificed on the altar of politics,” Dr Addai-Poku said.
Members of the Service in a group picture after the conference
The Deputy Minister for the Interior, Naana Eyiah, has charged the various security agencies, particularly Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) to be extremely vigilant at the borders as the country prepares for the December 7 presidential and parliamentary elections.
“As we approach the December general election, it is even more crucial to intensify our efforts to protect the territorial integrity of our borders and it is particularly important, given the rapid spread of terrorism and violent extremism in Sub-Saharan Africa,” she said.
The Deputy Minister for the Interior Hon. Naana Eyiah delivering her speech at the conference
The deputy Minister of Interior made the call at a three (3) day Conference of 2024 Management and Regional Commanders of the GIS, here in the Eastern Regional capital, Koforidua.
She assured the public of government’s willingness to continue to work with the Ghana Immigration Service and other border management institutions to strengthen Ghana’s security and scale up initiatives that will contribute to securing the territorial integrity of the country.
Naana Eyiah told GIS members that security was a collective responsibility that cannot be shouldered by a single institution and, therefore, urged the service to strengthen their collaboration with sister security agencies in an effort to protect our borders.
“The Ghana Immigration Service has a huge task, as the lead agency in our land border management system, as enshrined in Ghana’s National Security Strategy and I have no doubt that your capabilities will live up to that mandate.
“In today’s intricate and ever-evolving threat landscape, our collective responsibility to ensure safety and security for our dear country has never been more critical. As security officers, we must stay vigilant, proactive and collaborative to counter emerging risks,” she stated.
The Deputy Minister applauded GIS, particularly under the current leadership, for helping to forge stronger ties with key partners in strengthening the territorial borders to reduce irregular migration, prevent terrorism and violent extremism and transnational organised crimes.
She advised GIS to continue to strengthen its collaboration with all national and international stakeholders for effective and efficient migration management, adding that effective border management will enhance Ghana’s security and facilitate travel and trade for development.
The Controller-General of Ghana Immigration Service (GIS), Mr. Kwame Asuah Takyi, on his part assured the minister and Ghanaians of his outfit’s commitment to religiously and jealously protect the borders of Ghana before, during and after the December 7 presidential and parliamentary elections.
According to him, December 7 elections poses a unique set of challenges with national security concerns at the forefront, hence the Service remains proactive, vigilant and prepared to mitigate potential risks, especially at the borders and ensure a secure environment for the conduct of the general elections.
To him, instability has been recurring in the Sahel regions and West Africa, as violent events have become more frequent and deadly in recent times, a situation the Service was much aware of and ready for any risk.
He noted that it was imperative for the GIS to enhance its strategies by monitoring and ensuring tactical response to potential threats and particularly, community engagement and policing.
The Controller-General of Ghana Immigration Service (GIS), Mr. Kwame Asuah Takyi assuring the minister and Ghanaians
“Due to the expiration of the 2018-2022 Strategic Plan by the Service, GIS, with the support of the International Centre Migration Policy Development (ICMPD) has developed a 7-year Strategic Plan aimed at guiding the strategic direction of the Service for the next seven years,” Mr. Asuah Takyi explained.
Throwing light on the plan, he disclosed that the strategic plan would help address existing gaps and needs to position the GIS on the trajectory for improved efficiency and effectiveness to ensure the safety and protection of migrants, travellers and citizens alike.
“The 7-year Strategic Plan (2023-2029 Strategic Plan), which was launched in October 2023, is to be delivered through a two-year Action Plan that breaks down the broad strategic objectives into outcomes, outputs, activities and inputs as the first two-year Action Plan (2023-22024) comes to an end”
Mr. Asuah Takyi articulated that there was the need to commence the process of drafting the next two-year action plan to guide the activities and initiatives of the service for the next two years towards actualizing the overarching strategic objectives outlined in the seven-year strategic plan (2023-2029).
He disclosed that there would be a presentation on the proposed activities from the various GIS Regional Commands and the validation of the same for incorporation into their next action plan (2025-2026), which is crucial for mapping out the strategic actions and initiatives of the service for the next two years.
According to him, the Service will examine the Joint Mobile Team concept, which has been key in enhancing their operational capabilities.
“Let me reiterate that this conference is not just about highlighting our achievements or identifying challenges, but also about crafting solutions and strategies that will position the GIS in the forefront of national security as a forward-thinking, responsive institution, especially in this election period,” said Mr. Asuah Takyi.
“We must be reminded, referencing the 2020 National Security Strategy that our responsibility extends beyond border control – it is about contributing significantly to ensuring the safety and security of the entire nation”.
The Ghana National Association of Small-Scale Miners (GNASSM) has bolstered its taskforce and monitoring units with modern machinery to combat illegal mining, known locally as galamsey, which has ravaged Ghana’s environment and water resources.
Equipped with two speedboats, enhanced personnel and advanced techniques, the GNASSM’s taskforce and monitoring units now have a broadened scope to protect Ghana’s river bodies and highways.
Their primary focus is to patrol river bodies and apprehend illegal miners polluting these water sources, monitor and arrest galamseyers operating near highways and target fabricators of dredgers used in illegal mining.
Call for Government Support
Addressing a press conference in Kumasi on Friday, October 3, 2024 under theme: ‘Operation Save Our Waters: A Quest for Equity’, the General Secretary of the GNASSM, Godwin Armah, underscored the need for government support.
“We need support from the government in terms of personnel and logistics. The government’s trained water guards should be brought onboard for us to work together to clamp down on those mining in our river bodies”, he said.
Community-Driven Approach
On the sidelines of the press conference, the Vice-President of the GNASSM, Samson Wiredu, advocated for a community-driven approach, leveraging local intelligence to combat galamsey.
“Our taskforce and monitoring units are part of the community system. We have all the intelligence needed to clamp down on illegal mining.
“We know the perpetrators and are going after them. What we require from the government is to allow us to lead this fight and support us with security personnel and logistics in the form of patrol cars and other machinery”, he noted.
Recent Successes
Concurrently with the press conference, the Eastern Regional arm of the GNASSM taskforce and monitoring unit, in collaboration with the police, arrested an illegal miner on the Birim River in Akyem Mosso, in the Atiwa West District.
Background checks revealed that the illegal miner is a Togolese national. About 40 other illegal miners swam across the Birim River to evade arrest. Twenty (20) changfan machines that were being used by the illegal miners on the river body were destroyed by the taskforce unit.
In February, this year, the GNASSM taskforce and monitoring unit also arrested 29 galamseyers in a swoop exercise that was conducted at three separate sites at Akyem Pramkese in Kwaebirim Municipality of the Eastern Region.
The taskforce and monitoring unit of the GNASSM has played a crucial role in promoting responsible mining practices and combating illegal in Ghana.
It has for instance, adopted the Birim River as a pet project to showcase their commitment to the fight against galamsey. The taskforce and monitoring unit aims to reduce the turbidity level of the river.
Concerns over Mining in Forest Reserves
Apart from GNASSM appealing for support, the association also expressed concerns about mining in forest reserves, citing the potential for irreparable damage to Ghana’s biodiversity and natural resources. Forest reserves like Tano Offin and Atewa Range are globally recognised for their significant biodiversity.
The GNASSM urged the government reconsider granting mining licenses for operations in forest reserves, enforce sanctions prescribed under the Minerals and Mining Act, Act 2006 (703) as amended.
Caution Against Sit-Down Strike
In response to Organised Labour’s planned sit-down strike beginning October 10, 2024 the GNASSM cautioned that such action would cause more harm than good to Ghana’s fragile economy.
“We call on the government to urgently, signal a credible way forward on the galamsey issue so as to avert the damaging effects of a general strike on our already fragile economy. Labour and government should engage in discussions towards finding lasting solutions to illegal mining, which respects the role of the relevant technical and regulatory institutions and without political partisanship”, Armah appealed.
“We will plead with Organised Labour to reconsider their decision on the intended strike and work together with the government in finding lasting solutions to the challenge confronting all of us,” he added.
The small-scale miners’ association also appealed for a bipartisan approach in dealing with the illegal mining menace, urging that “those who are politicking with the issue for their own selfish gain should desist from it”.
Most Rev. Dr. Paul Kwabena Boafo, Presiding Bishop of The Methodist Church, Ghana, has called on Judges and Lawyers to prioritise accessibility to justice for all, emphasising that it should not be treated as a commodity for the privileged.
He delivered this message during the 67th Legal Year Church Service in Accra, themed “Building the Pillars of Justice Delivery through Leadership, Innovation and Technology.”
Dr. Boafo urged legal practitioners to approach their roles with empathy and ethical responsibility, stressing that justice must be available to everyone, regardless of their financial status.
“In a world where inequalities persist, we must be vigilant,” he said, underscoring the judiciary’s vital role in combating systemic injustices.
Reflecting on the moral imperative of justice, he reminded attendees of their responsibility toward the vulnerable, including women, orphans and those without means.
“Let justice flow like rivers,” he proclaimed, envisioning a society where every individual feels secure in their rights.
The Reverend Minister asserted that justice is not merely about winning cases, it is about ensuring fair treatment for all who seek help.
He called for unity within the legal community, stating “Let us support one another in our shared pursuit of justice.”
He noted that justice transcends the technical application of rules, impacting the collective morality and ethical commitments of society. Quoting Isaiah in the Holy Bible, he urged attendees to “learn to do good, seek justice, correct oppression, bring justice to the fatherless.”
Dr. Boafo also emphasised the importance of fair and equitable justice in the lead-up to the December 2024 elections.
He stated that justice fosters trust in institutions and reduces the potential for violence, highlighting the need for impartiality in the electoral process.
“You are major stakeholders in establishing a just electoral system,” he declared, calling on legal leaders to create an environment where laws are enforced with integrity, challenging systemic biases that marginalise vulnerable groups.
Furthermore, he linked justice to environmental sustainability, cautioning against the destructive practices associated with illegal mining or ‘galamsey.’
He described this as a form of environmental injustice, highlighting how the actions of powerful individuals harm both the environment and marginalised communities.
Dr. Boafo warned of the severe consequences of environmental degradation, including health issues such as cancer and deformities in children, due to contaminated water.
“What we are doing to the environment will have dire consequences for us,” he cautioned.
The service served as a poignant reminder of the judiciary’s essential role in upholding democratic values and protecting the rights of all citizens, particularly in a nation striving for greater equity and integrity in its legal system.
A team of armed police officers from the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and the Drug Law Enforcement Unit (DLEU) of the Ghana Police Service, under the supervision of the Accra Circuit Court and the Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC), have incinerated sacks of marijuana.
This operation is part of a broader initiative aimed at combating the production, sale and use of narcotic substances in Ghana.
The court mandated that the destruction of these drugs take place at the Battle Training Camp (BTC) in Bundase, Accra, with journalists present to witness the event.
Registrar Prosper Kingsley Damankah ensured media coverage during the proceedings.
The seized substances, which were intercepted on highways, based on intelligence, were being transported from Ghana to Nigeria.
In an interview, Registrar Damankah noted that some individuals arrested for possession of these drugs had been convicted as far back as ten years ago, while others are still serving as evidence in ongoing cases.
He added that a key difference between this operation and a previous one conducted two months prior was that the former involved various drugs including heroin and cocaine.
Damankah suggested that the government could explore the potential benefits of these seized substances, proposing that dried marijuana could be redirected to pharmaceutical industries instead of being destroyed.
He urged lawmakers to reconsider existing laws, stating, “This should be a wake-up call for the lawmakers to re-look at the laws.”
Daniel Addo with Nana Twumasi and Headmaster Desmond Kwadwo Mensah commissioning the computer lab
Consolidated Bank Ghana (CBG) has donated computers to three Schools in the Sekyere South District in the Ashanti region to enhance ICT studies at the basic levels.
Each of the recipient schools, which are Bipoa SDA Junior High School, Agona SDA Junior High School and Bedomase D/A Basic School received 10 desktop computers.
The beneficiary schools present a Citation in honour of CBG MD
Besides the donation of computers the bank has also given the schools a much-needed facelift across all the three schools by doing some electrical, painting and tiling works and refurbished their ICT laboratories with the view of transforming the educational experience for students across the three schools.
Mr. Daniel Addo, Managing Director of the Bank explained that the Consolidated Bank Ghana Ltd believes in the power of community and the importance of contributing to the development and sustainability of the communities they serve.
According to him, CBG is an indigenous financial institution with a mission to provide simple, secure and differentiated banking experiences to their customers, indicating that with 114 branches nationwide, it is committed to making a meaningful impact in the lives of their stakeholders.
He disclosed that their Corporate Social Responsible initiatives focus on three core pillars that include Health, Community Development and Education through, which the bank actively contributes to the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to address key areas that drive progress and wellbeing.
Mr. Addo revealed that Agona, like many other communities, thrives on agriculture, yet it faces challenges in accessing certain essential resources, particularly in Information Technology (IT) education.
He noted that in today’s digital age, access to computers was not a luxury but a necessity, the reason CBG was determined to help bridge the gap and empower students with the tools they need to succeed in the world of technology.

He said the computers would open the doors to new opportunities and allow students to build essential IT skills and commended the Gyasiwaa Education Support for their invaluable role in identifying the beneficiary schools and ensuring that their efforts will have the greatest impact where it is needed most.
Mr. Desmond Kwadwo Mensah, Headmaster of Bipoa SDA Junior High School on behalf of the three beneficiary schools expressed their gratitude to CBG for the kind gesture.
He promised management of CBG that the computers would be used effectively for the intended purpose to improve ICT Education and disclosed that students in the area always perform well in the ICT theory, but perform poorly when it comes to practicals.
Amerado has revealed why he released ‘Date Rush’, a few days after King Paluta had released his mega hit song, ‘Makoma.’ After the release of Amerado’s ‘Date Rush’, some social media users suggested that he should have waited for King Paluta’s ‘Makoma’ to enjoy some monopoly on the music marketing before dropping his song. According to these critics, they believed the weight of King Paluta’s song would submerge Amerado’s.
However, speaking to Joy FM‘s Kwame Dadzie on Showbiz A-Z, Amerado recounted the back story of the two releases.
“Myself and my team, we have plans. Sometimes people make it seem they think about you more than you think about yourself, which is very bad.
I was going to release a song I have with King Paluta on that Friday King Paluta dropped ‘Makoma’. We were going to drop ‘Playman’, and Paluta told me he was going to drop a song on that day. So I agreed that he should release his song on that day so that I drop mine a week after his,” he said.
The ‘Kwaku Ananse’ hit maker further explained that he couldn’t have pulled the reins on his plans because of the release plans of other musicians.
“I am not a magician, I didn’t know ‘Makoma’ was going to be too big, and the fact that ‘Makoma’ took over doesn’t mean that it should mess up my plans. Because out of all the big songs I have dropped including ‘Abronoma’, the ‘Date Rush’ song has the most interactions on TikTok.
The fact that we are playing King Paluta doesn’t mean we cannot play ‘Amerado’. We cannot play one person’s song all the time. Also, not every song will be a monster hit. Even with the likes of Daddy Lumba and Amakye Dede, some of their songs are bigger than others,” he indicated.
In the meantime, Amerado has released a 5-track EP titled ‘The Gold Coin.’
The video for the remix of Camidoh’s ‘Nothing Lasts Forever’ has been released. The video which was directed by Camidoh features some captivating scenes that will tickle the fancy of music lovers.
The song features King Paluta, Kelvyn Boy, Medikal, Lyrical Joe and Beeztrap KOTM. Another prominent voice is Coded of 4×4 fame, whose signature chants breathe life into the composition.
The artistes compliment Camidoh’s energy on the song, giving it an all-refreshing feel with their unique styles and delivery.
‘Nothing Lasts Forever’ themed on heartbreak and disappointment, reveals an unpleasant situation Camidoh went into about a year ago.
Camidoh recounts that the song talks about love having its up and down moments. It advises people to apply logic when dealing with the pain as he himself did.
“I wouldn’t say much but losing a partner I loved very much to a few arguments or misunderstandings here and there hurts so bad,” he says indicating that the incident has nothing to do with infidelity.
He further mentions that he broke down completely, got depressed and had to go through a therapy session.
“I made a lot of lifelong plans with this person,” he added. Camidoh keeps chalking greater feats since he shot into the limelight in 2018 when he was signed by Grind Don’t Stop Records.
His successes with ‘Sugarcane’ and its remix earned him global recognition, winning Afrobeats Song of the Year award at the 2023 Ghana Music Awards, earning a nomination in the ‘Viewer’s Choice: Best New International Act’ category at the 2023 Black Entertainment Television Awards and consequently performing at various sessions of the prestigious award scheme.
