His comment comes at the back of backlashes from Ghanaians and key industry players for the country's economic woes.

Osafo-Maafo noted that he was optimistic the economy will bounce back despite its wobbling state.

“We all know the economy is not in good shape,” he is quoted by 3news.com to have said in vernacular.

“The economic challenge is not from Ghana. If something is not from you, you have to take your time to strategically resolve it. It won’t keep long and we will work on the economic challenge," he added.

The former Finance Minister added that voting for the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) is not the alternative to solving the economic woes as some Ghanaians have suggested, 3news.com reported.
