Former President John Dramani Mahama on Thursday, October 27, 2022, addressed the nation.
The address, which took place at the UPSA Auditorium, touched on the current economic hardships sweeping across the land, high inflation rates and the depreciation of the cedi.
Outlining some solutions to these challenges, Mr. Mahama urged government to cut down on expenditure by reducing the number of appointees and ministers. He also advised government to abolish or realign state institutions with similar functions while suspending non essential projects.
Again, the 2020 flagbearer of the NDC backed calls for the dismissal of the Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta from office; adding that his removal will not affect the ongoing negotiations between Ghana and the IMF.
