President John Dramani Mahama has sworn in the newly appointed Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Dr. Johnson Pandit Asiama, and First Deputy Governor, Dr. Zakari Mumuni, charging them to stabilize the local currency, control inflation, and drive economic recovery.

Speaking at the swearing-in ceremony, President Mahama emphasized the need for policies that protect ordinary citizens and businesses.

He highlighted the impressive track records of the new governors, expressing confidence in their ability to reset the economy and maintain price stability.

The President urged them to focus on their core mandate of reviving what he described as a collapsed economy.

He also stressed that their decisions must be human-centered, preventing burdens on private businesses.

Citing the collapse of some financial institutions in recent years, which led to job losses and business closures, he tasked the new leadership to ensure such crises do not occur under their watch.
