A former Board Chairman of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), Prof Stephen Adei has charged President Akufo-Addo to address the nation on the challenges confronting the country.
According to him, the enormity of the current economic problems is similar to the Covid-19 situation.
Thus, the President must once again hold periodic nation addresses to let the people know government’s plan in resuscitating the economy.
Prof Adei was speaking on JoyNews’ UpFront on Thursday.
“We just went through one crisis, Covid-19, the President every week spoke to the nation. And every Sunday at 8 o’clock there was a statement by the President.
“So since things are still not good, please join us, support us,” Prof Adei told the President.
Ghana’s economic situation has not been the best in recent times.
With the hike in fuel and transportation and the depreciation of the currency, many Ghanaians are complaining about their dire financial needs.
Economists have also predicted doom for the economy should government fail to salvage things with urgency.
