GHANA – Resignations, Reshuffle and Early Elections loom: As IMF mirage and possible Sri Lanka style demonstrations

Ghana may be forced to hold General Elections earlier than 2024 to avoid premature change in government...

Amidst calls for the Resignations of the Vice President and Finance Minister for steering GHANA into the current economic mess;

Ahead of the two major political parties electing their leaders to steer them to Elections 2024, it is fast becoming clear that Ghana may rather be headed for Early Elections.

Ghana may be forced to hold General Elections earlier than 2024 to avoid premature change in government…

Orderly Elections or change in Ghana’s Government is becoming more apparent as the calls for key personalities like the Vice President and the Finance Minister to resign while the Majority Leader also demands the shrinking of Government to 19 Ministers from its current bloated size because of incompetence on the part of these Ministers who are a huge burden on the public purse, contributing nothing to their sectors some of which are redundant except for churning corruption and waste.

President Akufo-Addo’s hollow policies have brought Ghana to where Sri Lanka is, the IMF may walk away from Ghana as it did with Sri Lanka and then Ghana will most definitely slip to the ranks of a Failed State.

It is also clear to Ghanaians that that, if the prescriptions offered in Parliament by the Opposition had been adhered to, Ghana would have been in a better place…

It is also clear to Ghanaians that, the predictions of President John Mahama have come true and that his superior policy alternatives that were poopooed by Akufo-Addo, Bawumia and the NPP are the best way forward for Ghana…

Most Ghanaians are clear in their minds what they will choose, if Elections were held today, and the choices were the NDC and NPP.

Most Ghanaians want an immediate change in their circumstances and know the NPP and the Akufo-Addo-Bawumia-Ken Ofori-Atta Government cannot deliver; thus want them changed immediately…

Workers Unions were demanding an immediate improvement of their circumstances and held the Akufo-Addo-Bawumia government hostage ahead of any possibility of an IMF programme for fear of the outcome…

The government agreed to a 15% Cost of Living Allowance for all Government workers even though it had no intentions of fulfilling the agreement just like the Neutrality Allowance it agreed with Local Government Service Workers and many other obligations including paying 97pesewas per student for School Feeding Programme, supply of food to schools, supply of textbooks to schools, payment of Allowances to Nursing and Teacher Trainees and their recruitment after school…

Immediately after agreeing to the 15% COLA the government announced a 15% increase in all government fees and levies; thereby taking with the left hand what it has given Labour with the right hand.

The Government and the Workers Unions are aware of the government’s inability to pay the 15% COLA agreed given the current economic situation yet agreed to suspend the strike as a mere gesture of postponing the problem…

Former Chief-of-Staff Kojo Mpiani and others have called for the resignation of Ken Ofori-Atta as Finance Minister due to incompetence and collapse of the economy.

Lawyer Martin Kpebu and others are demanding the resignation of Dr. Bawumia as the head of the failed Economic Management Team and Vice President of Ghana.

As sure as day follows night, as sure as the Cathedral will never be built; the COLA Ceasefire and calling off of the Strike will return soon.

Ghanaians are bracing themselves for the inevitable.

There is an urgent need to RESCUE GHANA.

There must be a National Dialogue to avert the obvious.

Ghanaians must avert an Uprising as anticipated by Kojo Mpiani which can spiral our of control or a knee-jerk imposition of a State of Emergency under the guise of Terrorism Threat, COVID-19 or some other Epidermis Lockdown being used as an excuse to turn Ghana into a Police State.

UNION GOVERNMENT IS NOT AN OPTION.

Ghanaians want a clean break from the current Corrupt, inept, incompetent Akufo-Addo-Bawumia government and the investigation and prosecution of some persons.

The Opposition will want a free hand and a working if not absolute majority in Parliament required to make far-reaching Constitutional reforms required to steer Ghana back onto a path of recovery.

GHANA CAN BE SAVED.

Ghanaians are resolved to be Citizens and not Spectators.

AriseGhana Youth for your country…

The IMF is not a done deal…

God Save Our Homeland Ghana and help us RESIST OPPRESSOR’S RULE.

Jean Adukwei Mensa’s attempt to hold a GhanaCard Elections, may indeed be worth more than a thousand interchanges.
