The Chief Executive Officer of the now-defunct UT Bank, Mr Prince Kofi Amoabeng, has claimed that the government is not doing enough to lessen the effects of the problems brought on by external forces and that President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and his Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta have failed in managing the economy well.
He said that even while the government cannot control outside forces, it must take action to address domestic problems not brought on by external forces.
Speaking on the Business Focus with Paa Kwesi Asare on TV3 Monday, October 3, he said “You must do what you can locally, for the external factors you can’t do much, what are you doing locally to reduce the effect? We are not doing anything. The government hasn’t come out to say we coming down on certain things.”
He added that the economy has been poorly managed by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and his Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta.
He claimed that because he was the one who appointed the Finance Minister, Mr Akufo-Addo must accept responsibility for his failure.
He added, “Of course, if you fail with the planning and management of the Finances of the country you have failed,” on the Business Focus with Paa Kwesi Asare on TV3 on Monday, October 3.
The Finance Minister has failed, thus there is no point in wasting time.
