Akufo-Addo Says Measures Are Underway To Solve Food Inflation

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has stated that measures are far advanced to solve the current food inflation in the country.

The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) last week said food inflation was 32.3%.

In tackling the surging food inflation, Ghana’s president said arrangements are underway to have trucks convey foodstuffs from rural areas to urban centres.

“Arrangements are being made with market women, market queens, in popular parlance, to provide trucks to evacuate foodstuffs from rural markets to urban centres to help reduce cost of food prices in the city”, he said.

President Akufo-Addo was speaking at the 22nd General Meeting of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana at Kwahu Abetifi in the Eastern Region.
