The Ministry of Finance in Ghana recently shared a series of tweets highlighting the country’s economic performance, particularly focusing on inflation and consumer price index (CPI) figures for June 2025. These posts provide insights into the nation’s current financial landscape and reflect the views of Dr. Alhassan Iddrisu, a government statistician.
On July 2, 2025, the Ministry announced that “Inflation is falling, and for the 6th month in a row, and now stands at 13.7%,the lowest since December 2021.” This development marks a significant shift in Ghana’s economic narrative, with tangible impacts on households and businesses.
In another tweet posted shortly after, they observed “We are seeing early signs of price stability with core inflation dropping significantly.” Dr. Iddrisu emphasized the importance of maintaining this progress to ensure long-term sustainability.
A third tweet highlighted a decrease in prices from May to June. It stated that “Ghanaians paid less for goods and services in June than they did in May as month-on-month inflation fell by 1.2% between the two periods.” This rare moment of deflation offered short-term relief across various sectors including food and services.
