@barrisofficial: President John Dramani Mahama has officially launched the Ghana Cedi Heritage Series, describing the new currency notes as a reflection of Ghana’s history, cultural identity and economic sovereignty. Speaking at the launch ceremony at the Bank of Ghana, President Mahama said the Cedi represented more than a medium of exchange, as it also carried the country’s shared history and national identity. He noted that the name Cedi was derived from the Akan word for the cowry shell, recalling how cowries were used as a medium of exchange long before the establishment of modern financial institutions. According to him, the cowries facilitated trade among communities across the savannah, forest and coastal areas, allowing the exchange of commodities such as salt, cloth and cola. President Mahama said the new heritage series would preserve that historical connection while bringing Ghana’s cultural identity closer to the younger generation.#bank of Ghana#creatorsearchinsight #MahamaThePresident #foryoupage❤️❤️
