Vice Chairman of the Trades Union Congress (TUC) Ken Tweneboah Koduah says that he has not lost confidence in the Akufo-Addo-led administration.
He believes despite the current economic crisis, there is some room to enable the government meet the expectations for which the citizenry elected them.
Mr Koduah made these comments on JoyNews’ AM Show on Tuesday.
“Obviously not (not lost confidence in government). We elected this government, and we feel that with the right processes, we can all govern, or contribute to governing this country so it becomes what we all desired it to be.”
Furthermore, he told Bernice Abu-Baidoo that this situation could have better-managed if there had been effective consultation on crucial policy decisions.
According to him, “policies that are geared towards enhancing the ordinary Ghanaian are discussed without getting the stakeholders involved.”
Mr. Tweneboah Koduah stated that if the government took stakeholder feedback into account on all national concerns, it might have found solutions the country's problems.
Government is currently at the doorstep of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a $3 billion bailout.
On Tuesday, the fund announced that both parties has reached a Staff-Level agreement awaiting the executive board’s approval.
Addressing the situation, the TUC Vice Chairman feared that the programme may come with conditions that may not augur well for a section of the populace.
“If you check the history of IMF in Ghana, you would always find that inasmuch as it tries to get our debt issues resolved and also build investor confidence, it brings some harsh blows on us, a section of the population,” he explained.
He suggested that government implements the IMF conditions in a way that fits the progress and context of the country.
