Former President John Dramani Mahama has charged President Akufo-Addo to urgently replace his Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta, because he has lost credibility and confidence after he supervised “the disastrous collapse of the economy.”
According to him, he's not fit to lead the IMF negotiations.
“Meanwhile 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 must formulate a comprehensive recovery plan for our economy,” the former President added.
Reacting to the former President’s call for the ouster of Ken Ofori-Atta, Information Minister, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah asked if he sacked his then Finance Minister, Seth Terkper when his administration went to the IMF.

The NDC is allergic to competence and that is why they wish Ken was sacked from the ministry of finance. To me, he is hardworking, competent, uncorrupted, and trustworthy. It is instructive to note that, whenever the NDC demands the resignation of a public official, it means that the official is performing very well and his competence makes the NDC very uncomfortable. That clearly makes the brand of the NDC, thus, opposition to everything positive of the ruling party, NPP, whether good or bad. So indifferent is the NDC to the welfare of the good people of Ghana.
Who is this Mahama man? Ist the one from North? Masa masa we beg keep ur mouth close. What do u know. If not Ghana anka ,where will u even come close to power. Masa Fri ho ko da.
How can you keep comparing your self to an 'incompetent' administration. This NPP administration has destroyed Kufuor's legacy. Very ***barred word*** and insensitive government.
