Just In: Parliament Adjourns as Finance Minister Fails to Present 2025 Mini-Budget

Ghana’s Parliament has adjourned its session to January 2, 2025, following the absence of Finance Minister Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam, who was expected to present the mini-budget for the first quarter of 2025.

The delay has sparked widespread concern about a potential government shutdown, as the lack of budget approval could disrupt the payment of public sector salaries and other operations in the new year.

Minority Leader Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson criticized the situation, calling it a constitutional affront and a dereliction of duty.

The adjournment has further intensified frustrations among Ghanaians, with many taking to social media to vent their concerns.

Posts on X, formerly Twitter, highlight fears about the potential economic implications of this delay.

The absence of the Finance Minister has left lingering questions about the government’s readiness to address pressing fiscal issues.

As the new session looms, all eyes will be on the Finance Ministry to ensure the budget is finalized and approved without further delay.
