The Minority Caucus in parliament has said that Ghanaians are yet to face the full consequences of the IMF deal in the coming days.
Their comments come following the approval of the $3 billion-dollar loan request by the IMF board on Wednesday, May 17, 2023.
The Minority believes that Ghanaians will soon face reality when the brunt of government’s decision to pursue a loan from the IMF bites hard.
In a statement released on Thursday, May 18, 2023, and signed by leader, Cassiel Ato Forson, the Minority pointed out how for instance, utility tariffs have been increased since September 2022 by 75.32%.
According to them, government’s failure to seek the bailout in 2021 when things were not this critically dire has cost the country more and resulted in tragic events including the ‘cruel haircuts’ impacts on banks and insurance companies among others.
