The continuous appreciation of the local currency could reduce the fees Ghanaian Muslims pay to travel to Mecca to perform Hajj pilgrimage.
President John Dramani Mahama announced this during his Thank You Tour in Kintampo in the Bono East Region on Thursday, May 29.
According to him, pilgrims are likely to pay as low as GHC 50,000 next year, down from GHS 62,000.
