Ghana Launches Nationwide Monitoring for 100th LEAP Payment Cycle

The Government of Ghana, through the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection (MoGCSP), has rolled out a nationwide monitoring exercise to supervise the 100th payment cycle of the Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP) programme. The exercise, which began last week, is taking place across all 16 regions to confirm that cash transfers are reaching the right beneficiaries without delays or irregularities. Strengthening Transparency and Service Delivery Monitoring teams drawn from the Ministry and partner institutions are visiting selected payment centres nationwide.

The goal is simple: protect the integrity of the LEAP programme while ensuring vulnerable households […]

Ghana Cedi Gains Ground as Dollar Weakness Boosts Currency Outlook

The Ghanaian cedi is showing signs of recovery, supported by favourable external conditions and improving market sentiment. Over the past two weeks, the currency faced mild demand pressures at the start of the period, largely in line with market expectations. However, it regained ground in the latter half as broad “sell America” sentiment and sustained weakness in the United States dollar provided support to emerging and frontier market currencies. Interbank market performance In the interbank market, the cedi appreciated: 0.09% against the US dollar 0.86% against the pound sterling 1.16% against the euro It closed at mid-rates of GH¢10.97 to the dollar, GH¢14.81 to the pound, and GH¢12.93 to the euro. Retail market movement The gains also filtered into the retail segment. The cedi strengthened: 0.6% against the US dollar 1.29% against the pound sterling 1.11% against the euro It […]

Ghana Cocoa Farmers and Clerks Count Losses After Price Reduction

Some cocoa purchasing clerks and farmers in the Upper West Akyem Municipality say they are facing serious financial losses following the government’s recent reduction in cocoa prices. The clerks explained that delays in the release of funds from the Ghana Cocoa Board forced many of them to take bank loans to buy cocoa beans from farmers. Because a portion of the beans was purchased at the previous price, they now fear they will struggle to absorb the difference and repay their loans under the new pricing structure. According to them, the situation has created growing tension in several farming communities. Some farmers have reportedly refused to sell their cocoa at the current price, arguing that it does not reflect the cost of production. The concerns were shared with journalists during a press conference held in Koforidua, where both clerks and […]

Newly recruited teachers from the 2024 cohort are picketing at the headquarters of the Ghana Education Service (GES), demanding the release of their Staff Identification Numbers and the payment of outstanding salaries and allowances.

Kofi Kapito criticises voter inducement in NDC Ayawaso East primaries

The Chief Executive Officer of the Consumer Protection Agency, Kofi Kapito, has criticised the practice of distributing food and other incentives to voters during political primaries, describing it as unethical and harmful to Ghana’s democratic process. Speaking on Joy News AM about voter inducement in party primaries, Kapito stressed that the issue cuts across political lines. “It’s not just an NDC thing. It’s a Ghana thing,” he said. He acknowledged that certain technical interpretations may allow such practices but warned that public perception tells a different story. “When the masses don’t buy the technicalities, it becomes a problem,” he noted. Ethics and accountability Kapito argued that the deeper issue is a broader ethical deficit in the country. He questioned what happens to the principles taught in schools once people leave formal education. “At the university, they teach ethics. The question […]
