The depreciation of the Ghana cedi is among the leading causes of increased economic hardships in Ghana today.
As of October 10, 2022, the currency is selling at 11 to $1 dollar at some forex bureaus in the country.

While some social media users have reacted in shock to the current state of the local currency in sharp contrast to what it was in 2015, others have taken a swipe at the NPP government for leading a “failing economy”.
According to the latest Bloomberg and World Bank report, the Ghana Cedi ranks as the worst-performing currency in Africa.
The World Bank report noted that: "The worst performing currencies in the region since the beginning of the year include those of Ghana (with a depreciation of 60 percent), South Sudan (50.8 percent), Sudan (28.6 percent), Malawi (25.4 percent), and CFA Franc (13.3 percent)."
The cedi touched a record high of GHS/USD 4.45 this week.
