We’re Still Clearing Your Legacy Debts – Eugene Arhin to Mahama

The Akufo-Addo government has said it is “engaged in paying up the energy legacy debts inherited from the Mahama government and we have cleared the GHS1.2-billion-cedi NHIS debt we inherited”.

This was said by the Director of Communications at the Jubilee House, Mr Eugene Arhin on Thursday, 11 November 2021 when he briefed the presidential press corps.

At the same event, Mr Arhin also said the “high fuel prices” and “rising cost of living” currently being experienced by Ghanaians are not a “Ghanaian phenomenon”.

“They are the order of the day across the globe, unfortunately”, he told the press corps.

Mr Arhin said, “just as every country is confronted with these challenges – difficult, if I may say, largely as a result of the impact of COVID-19 – Ghana, under President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, is making every effort through the Ghana CARES Obaatanpa programme to alleviate the hardships brought forth by the pandemic”.

Now, he noted, “it is important to say that the Akufo-Addo government will continue to work for the development of Ghana and help improve the living standards of all Ghanaians”.

He said “far from” claims that the government is out of touch with the suffering of the people, “this government is highly focused on delivering its mandate”.
