Ghanaian highlife musician Kuami Eugene has expressed concern over the recent appreciation of the Ghanaian cedi against the US dollar.
In a post shared on X (formerly Twitter) on May 28, 2025, the “Angela” hitmaker revealed that he is unhappy with the cedi’s performance, explaining that it is negatively affecting his dollar-denominated investments.
“My dollar reserves all dey go waste. I’m happy and sad at the same time,” he wrote.
Kuami Eugene went on to appeal to President John Dramani Mahama, urging him to slow down the pace at which the cedi is strengthening against the dollar.
“We beg President John Dramani Mahama to slow down small,” he added.
The musician’s post has sparked mixed reactions on social media. While some users criticised him for his remarks, others sympathised with his concerns, acknowledging the challenges faced by individuals with dollar-based savings or investments.
