A
member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Communications team, Nana
Boakye has blamed President John Dramani Mahama for the current economic
woes on the Ghanaian citizenry.
Chiding the President and his
government for crippling the economy, Nana Boakye expressed on Peace
FM’s “Kokrokoo” programme that the Mahama government’s decision to
solicit the support of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) may spell
doom for the nation.
According to him, the IMF transactions with
the Government of Ghana will not inure to the benefits of the country
but rather send fears down the spine of the citizenry.
Nana
Boakye, reacting to the government’s intent to seek help from the IMF,
indicated that it will have dire consequences on the economy due to the
conditionalities and other pledges attached to the offer that the IMF
may provide for the people of Ghana.
Though admitting the
government has no other choice to make looking at the current economic
hardships, the NPP Communicator could not hide his agitations as he
called on the Mahama government to work assiduously to remedy the plight
of Ghanaians.
However, NDC Communicator Fred Agbenyo has welcomed the IMF deal.
Speaking
on Peace FM’s morning show, Fred Agbenyo lauded the government’s
decision, stressing that the IMF bid will attract foreign investors into
the country. |
