Kyerematen Urges Long-Term Focus as NDC’s Economic Stabilization Faces Sustainability Test

​Former Trade and Industry Minister and Movement for Change leader Alan John Kwadwo Kyerematen has acknowledged the progress made by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government in stabilizing Ghana’s economy. Commenting on the recent improvements in key economic indicators, Kyerematen noted that while the initial progress provides relief, the real measure of success lies in whether the government can sustain these gains over the long term.

​Cautioning against premature celebration, Kyerematen emphasized that short-term improvements in macroeconomic indicators should not be treated as the final benchmark of success. He argued that temporary stability often masks underlying structural vulnerabilities, and true economic management requires building a resilient system capable of withstanding both internal and external shocks.

​Concluding his assessment, Kyerematen urged policymakers to move beyond temporary stabilization measures and implement robust structural reforms. He stressed that sustaining economic momentum over time will ultimately determine whether the government’s policies lead to permanent prosperity for Ghanaians or remain just a brief period of respite.
