A Techiman-based Economist and Chartered Accountant, Mr Prince Soregan, has urged the Minister for Finance, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, to prioritise economic stability, job creation, and measures to strengthen the energy sector in the 2027 Budget Statement and Economic Policy.

The Minister for Finance is expected to present the 2027 Budget and Economic Policy Statement to Parliament on Thursday, November 12, 2026, under the theme “The New Economy of Ghana”.

Speaking in an interview on ASTA FM Kokrokoo Morning Show on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, Mr. Prince Soregan said he expects the Finance Minister to announce practical policies and interventions aimed at consolidating economic stability, agribusiness and agricultural modernisation, strengthening the Ghanaian cedi and creating sustainable employment opportunities for the growing number of unemployed young people.

He further called on the government to make adequate provisions to revive and strengthen the energy sector to prevent a possible return to persistent power outages, popularly known as Dumsor.

According to him, a stable energy supply is essential to support businesses, attract investment and promote economic growth.

Mr. Soregan expressed hope that the 2027 budget would introduce concrete measures to address the concerns of ordinary Ghanaians, improve business activities and create a more favourable economic environment.

He said the expectations of Ghanaians remain high as they look forward to policies that will translate into improved living conditions and economic opportunities.
