That worst performance is better than the best performance under the previous government between 2012 and 2016,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The strength of the cedi against other major trading currencies is among the topical economic subject discussed by economists and political leaders in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last month, the strength of the currency became a concern for many Ghanaians as the cedi depreciated to the level that saw it being traded at nearly GH\u00a26 to a dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, within a week, the cedi appreciated fast enough to trade about GH\u00a25 to a dollar, however, the currency appears to be depreciating again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the Vice President is optimistic that the currency will be stable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>He said, \u201cOur worst is better than your [NDC] best and then you say boot for boot.
