Dead woods
Meanwhile, Mahama has urged President Akufo-Addo to sack Finance Minister, Ken Ofori Atta and remove the “dead woods” in his administration.
“It will serve the President well to use some instruments from the Presidential tool kit in times of crisis such as this. Fire your Finance Minister, conduct a major shake-up of Government to remove the many dead woods that have turned ministries into their fiefdoms and finally huddle with the best brains this country has to formulate a comprehensive recovery plan for our economy”.
“I called on President Akufo-Addo and his Head of the Economic Management Team to end the non-chalance and indecision and take urgent steps to address the self-inflicted economic disaster that has brought unbearable economic
hardships, pain, and great suffering to the people of Ghana. I made it clear that the economic problems we are facing stem from imprudent election-related expenditure and reckless decision-making in the management of the economy” he added.
