Ghana’s macroeconomic indicators are not pointing to the right direction – Prof Bokpin

A professor of Finance at the University of Ghana Business School, Godfred Bokpin has contradicted President Akufo-Addo’s claim that Ghana’s macroeconomic indicators are heading in the right direction.

However, reacting to this on JoyNews’ PM Express, Prof Bokpin was skeptical about the country’s economic growth.

“I don’t know what kind of building we want to put up on that foundation that it has taken us 32 years, and we are still laying a foundation, restoring, and rebuilding,” he remarked.

Prof Bokpin drew attention to a significant shift in economic dynamics, particularly the events from the third quarter of 2021 till date, which led to the implementation of the Domestic Debt Exchange Proggrame (DDEP).

This trend, according to Bokpin, raises questions about the perceived progress and quality of life in Ghana.
