She urged Ghanaians to remain patient, acknowledging that the recovery process will take time. It’s not going to be easy, so I urge all Ghanaians to be patient because there is nothing in the coffers, let’s be realistic, she explained.
Akorfa further emphasized the severity of the situation, stating, The country has been turned upside down. They have stolen everything, all the money is gone. It’s going to take time to recover. Despite the challenges, she expressed hope that Ghanaians would come together as one people and support the efforts of President-elect Mahama in rebuilding the nation.
Her call for patience and unity comes at a critical time as Ghana faces substantial economic challenges. Akorfa’s message serves as a reminder of the importance of collective responsibility in navigating the country’s future.
