The Minority in Parliament says it has agreed modalities with the police ahead of their planned protest at the Bank of Ghana Head Office, scheduled for September 5, 2023.
Expressing concerns over what they perceive as mismanagement of the central bank and substantial losses totaling GHC 60 billion as indicated in the 2022 financial report, the Minority issued a 21-day ultimatum to Dr Ernest Addison, the Governor of the Bank of Ghana, along with his deputies, demanding their resignation.

“We hold the view that the illegal printing of money by BoG in the years 2021 and 2022 to the tune of GH¢77 billion to finance the recklessness of the corrupt Akufo-Addo/Bawumia/NPP government, in flagrant disregard of section 30 of the BOG Act (as amended) is the height of irresponsibility and must be condemned by all well-meaning Ghanaians.”
