African Consolidated Exchange (ACEX) has expressed their readiness to change the African narrative by revolutionalising the economic outlook of Ghana and Africa.
ACEX is a platform that is the first of its kind in Africa to allow patrons trade the various forms of cryptocurrencies on a single platform.
Speaking at the launch at the International Leadership Institute, East Legon-Accra, the Country Representative, John Amihere, said the story of Africa had been told wrongly and it behove Africans to help retell the true story.
Against this backdrop, he said they believed education coupled with adequate regulation in the forex and crypto space could change things for the better.
He noted that their offers opportunity for those who recommend brokers, and also create opportunity in venture capital which partners credit unions as well as savings and loans with the aim of injecting capital into their businesses.
Mr. Amihere said this initiative which is already existent in Kenya, Nigeria, Zambia and other African countries aimed at building the financial muscles of smaller businesses.
With this across other African countries it is their conviction that the unfortunate global payment challenges across the African continent would be resolved.
He added that Bank of Ghana’s resolve to pilot digital currency would go a long way to change the perception about crypto trading.
Mr. Amihere further urged Africans to embrace and enact laws to regulate crypto trading because it is the future.

The Tema Regional Police Command has arrested a 32-year-old man for allegedly posing as a soldier and extorting money from unsuspecting members of the public at Ashaiman.
The suspect, identified as Bright Atsu Kudiabor, was arrested by the Ashaiman Police on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at about 7:00 a.m.
According to the Police, he was arrested at an area known as “I Shall Return”, where he was allegedly parading himself as a soldier and demanding money from people.
The Police said Kudiabor, who is an ex-convict, was initially arrested by personnel of the Ghana National Fire Service in Ashaiman with assistance from other members of the public.
A search conducted on him after he was handed over to the Police reportedly led to the recovery of a set of military camouflage uniform.
The suspect is currently in Police custody and assisting with investigations.
The Tema Regional Police Command said he would be processed for court after investigations are completed.
The Police urged the public to remain vigilant and report anyone who falsely presents themselves as a soldier or a member of another security agency to deceive or extort money from the public.

Volta Regional Minister, James Gunu, says the Volta Region holds enormous agricultural potential and efforts must be geared towards connecting farmers to the needed resources to unlock that potential.
He said focus must be on linking farmers to resources, technology, financing and markets to increase production, create jobs and build sustainable livelihoods.
Hon. Gunu made the remarks at the national launch of the Ghana Tomato Self-Sufficiency Initiative (GHATSI) held at Anloga in the Volta Region on Tuesday, September 15.
The initiative, under the theme “Produce at Home. Feed the Nation. Export the Surplus,” seeks to boost local tomato production, processing and marketing while reducing Ghana’s heavy reliance on imported tomatoes.
The launch was attended by the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, his Deputy, John Setor Dumelo, Feed Ghana Coordinator, Bright Demordzi, Members of Parliament, traditional leaders, MMDCEs, farmers and other stakeholders.
Mr.Gunu expressed appreciation to the Minister for Food and Agriculture for the support announced for the region, including two excavators, 200 cartons of organic fertiliser, and GH¢200,000 for Ms. Kuatudzo Esther Dela, a tomato farmer and processor from Ziope.
He described the initiative as an important step towards making agriculture a stronger driver of food security, job creation and economic growth in the Volta Region.
