Most Ghanaians say the nation is going off course, another Afrobarometer review shows.
A greater part of residents give negative evaluations of both their own day to day environments and the country's monetary condition, and few are hopeful that things will improve during the approaching year. In the mean time, residents' evaluations of the public authority's presentation on key monetary issues are predominantly negative.
