Founder of Action Chapel International, Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams, has urged President John Dramani Mahama to transform Ghana’s economic narrative by reviving the cedi and addressing the alarming rate of youth migration.
Speaking during Ghana’s inaugural National Prayer and Thanksgiving Day on July 1, the Archbishop emphasized the growing despair among young Ghanaians seeking opportunities abroad.
“Within three years, make a difference. Make the cedi thrive under your leadership,” he charged, adding that a thriving currency could restore hope and confidence in the country’s future.
Duncan-Williams described the wave of migration as a national crisis, rooted in economic instability and limited opportunities.
He called on the President to focus on restoring financial dignity, especially for the youth.
The interfaith event brought together Christian and Muslim leaders who prayed for peace, unity, and transformation, with special appeals for leadership committed to real change and responsible governance.
Duncan-Williams also stressed the need for a national development framework that transcends political terms.
He noted that achieving sustainable economic reform—including currency stability—requires a long-term agenda backed by all stakeholders.
“Reset Ghana,” he urged, linking the cedi’s revival to the need for a unified, nonpartisan national vision.
