“In other words, this NPP economic management team headed by Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia with the complicity of the Governor of the Central Bank has bankrupted and collapsed the once prestigious Bank of Ghana, the mother of all banks in Ghana.”
The Governor, Dr. Ernest Yedu Addison, and his two Deputy Governors were given a 21-day deadline by the NDC to retire.
The 137 members of Parliament (MPs) would march on the Central Bank till they see Dr. Addison’s back, according to the NDC, if he doesn’t quit.
