Kumawood actor, Kwaku Manu
Popular Kumawood actor, Kwaku Manu, has lauded President John Dramani Mahama for what he describes as significant economic progress made since the NDC leader returned to power.
In a video shared on Instagram from his vacation in the United States on May 26, 2025, the popular comic actor expressed excitement over the Ghanaian cedi’s recent appreciation against the US dollar.
He explained that the currency’s stability is a major relief for Ghanaians seeking to travel abroad, especially traders and frequent flyers.
According to Kwaku Manu, the president is really working.
“One thing I want to say is that, putting politics aside, President John Mahama is really working since he came back to power. He’s working hard,” Kwaku Manu said.
“When I travel abroad, I usually return to Ghana to change some of the dollars I earn here. Since I arrived, I’ve been monitoring the dollar rate. I know it may affect me when I get back, but I’m genuinely happy because it will ease the burden on Ghanaians who need to buy tickets to places like China, the U.S., and other destinations,” he added.
Manu’s comments join those of other personalities who have spoken up about the economic progress, especially as the Ghanaian cedi appreciates against the dollar. Currently, the US dollar is buying at GH¢10.29 and selling at GH¢10.39.
