President-elect, John Dramani Mahama, has reassured Ghanaians that his administration will not abandon the ongoing International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme.
In an interview with VOA on Saturday, December 14, Mr Mahama emphasized the importance of maintaining the IMF-backed economic reforms while considering potential adjustments to better align with the country's development needs.
Acknowledging the current economic difficulties facing Ghana, Mahama pointed out that the IMF programme, which was initiated under President Akufo-Addo's administration, had been instrumental in stabilizing the country's economy. "We've requested further discussions with the IMF, as we were not part of the negotiations for this programme.
We need to ensure that we are all aligned in terms of its implementation," Mr Mahama explained. "We are not going to jettison the programme.
