The Founder and Leader of the Movement for Change, Alan Kyerematen, has asserted his ability to address the exchange rate crisis.

He believes he is the best candidate to restore the value of the Ghanaian cedi compared to John Dramani Mahama of the National Democratic Congress and Dr Mahamudu Bawumia of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

“The strength of the cedi is dependent on the demand and supply of foreign exchange. There is no other way unless you produce and export. Because if you don’t produce and use that to export abroad, you won’t get dollars into the system… but have you ever heard a head of state talk about this before? So it is a systemic failure for a long time,” he explained.

“So between Alan, ex-President Mahama, and Dr Bawumia, if it’s production and exports that would revive the cedi, who among the three of us can do that? If we have made that mistake all these years and now need someone who can do this, then it is Alan who can do that,” he stated confidently.

Mr Kyerematen also urged Ghanaians to shift their focus from unfulfilled manifesto promises to a national development plan.

He stated that a government under the Movement for Change would prioritise significant constitutional reform.
