Member of Parliament for Ofoase Ayirebi constituency, Hon Kojo Oppong Nkrumah has urged the government to urgently restore the cocoa producer price to GH¢3,625 per bag, warning Parliament that the recent reduction threatens livelihoods across cocoa-growing communities.

Exports from Ghana have increased by about $8.5 million in 2026, according to Dr. Godfred Seidu Jasaw, board chairman of the Ghana Export Promotion Authority (GEPA), who credited the growth to higher export volumes and prudent surplus management rather than currency interventions.

Addressing the media, Jasaw said export quantities and revenues had risen steadily by mid-year, creating a measurable gap between export earnings and import spending. He stressed that the country’s improving macroeconomic stability reflects productive capacity being effectively utilised rather than reliance on heavy dollar injections.

“Something good is happening,” he said, noting that stronger export performance naturally supports currency stability and economic balance.

He added that sustained growth in external trade, supported by sound fiscal management, remains essential for long-term economic resilience and investor confidence.
