Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta says Ghanaians must not despair but have hope that the current economic challenges will be a thing of the past.
Government has admitted the economy is currently facing challenges, with the Finance Ministry imposing a raft of measures geared at stemming the tide.
Relying on his personal experience, Mr Ofori-Atta said he failed his Advanced Level exams. “I have gone through that, and, therefore, I know. I went through 6th form in Achimota. Just so giddy and happy, and I completely failed my A-level. And my dad said oh really.
“Why don’t you drive me around. Because as far as he was concerned, you had the capacity, and you had messed up. I drove dad around, and he was parliamentarian for Bregoro at that time,” he said at a National Youth Authority Breakfast Meeting of youth agencies on Friday.
