Ghana's 2024 general elections focus on the economy as the pivotal issue influencing voter decisions. Judith leads a compelling discussion with economist Joe Jackson and Professor Etse Sikanku, who share insights on the economic challenges facing the nation. They discuss the impact of soaring inflation, currency depreciation, and the government's debt restructuring on everyday citizens, particularly middle-income earners. The conversation highlights how the history of fiscal mismanagement shapes the political landscape and voter sentiment. As the incumbent party touts its economic stabilisation efforts, the opposition presents ambitious spending plans, raising questions about their feasibility. This election is not just about leadership; it represents a critical juncture for Ghana's economic future.
