The Cedi Belongs To All; Mahama Sends Strong Message To Ghanaians

According to a report by Ghanaian Citizen TV on Thursday November 12, 2026, President John Dramani Mahama has emphasised the importance of national unity and collective responsibility in protecting Ghana’s currency, declaring that the cedi belongs to every Ghanaian, irrespective of their political affiliation.

The President’s remarks underscore the need for citizens across the political divide to develop a shared sense of responsibility towards the country’s economic progress and the stability of its national currency.

According to President Mahama, the cedi should not be viewed as the property of any political party or group but rather as a national symbol that represents the economic identity and collective interests of all Ghanaians.

“Ghana’s cedi belongs to every Ghanaian, regardless of political affiliation,” President Mahama stated.

His comments highlight the importance of separating partisan political interests from matters concerning the national economy, particularly when it comes to supporting policies and initiatives aimed at strengthening the local currency.

The President’s message also comes at a time when discussions surrounding the performance of the cedi, economic recovery and the cost of living remain significant issues in the country.

The cedi plays a central role in Ghana’s economic activities, serving as the medium of exchange for businesses, workers, traders and households across the country. Its stability is therefore considered important to the financial well-being of citizens and the overall health of the economy.

President Mahama’s statement is a call for Ghanaians to look beyond political differences and recognise that the strength of the national currency affects everyone, regardless of which political party they support.

He is urging citizens to see the cedi as a shared national asset whose progress and stability should be a common concern rather than a subject of partisan division.

The President’s remarks have also reinforced the broader message that building a stronger economy requires cooperation, confidence and a collective commitment from all sections of Ghanaian society.
