To save the economy from going out of gear and save Ghanaians from the repercussion, the financial analyst advised the government to adhere to the recommendations of IMF. Ghana on Tuesday formally completed the IMF programme after it had entered into a US$925.9 million three-year arrangement with the IMF in April 2015 to cushion the economy. The Bolgatanga Central MP asserted that the achievement of the NDC government was superior to that of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) and had become an albatross on the neck of the government. Former President John Dramani Mahama and NDC’s 2020 presidential candidate joined the rank and file of the party at the lecture.
