Dear IMF, you’re bogus and a big joke if you told govt to do these 7 things – Ransford Gyampo

The IMF is bogus and a big joke if they told government to go ahead with wasteful spending and projects that have no positive influence on their Ghanaian economy.
Ransford Gyampo was of the view that the IMF must not be allowed to perpetuate the vicious cycle that makes the rich richer and the poor poorer in Africa, by deliberately overlooking the opulence, profligacy and total unwillingness to sacrifice on the part of our political elites.
He also asked if the IMF disingenuously told Ghanaian politicians to keep their savings and investments secured in foreign bank accounts and to use the pension money of the already impoverished public sector worker to fund the Debt Exchange Programme?
Ransford Gyampo quizzed the IMF and asked the following questions.
He writes…
So, did the IMF ask the government of Ghana to: do the following, even during this period of crisis and austerity?:
1. Maintain its Huge Size;
2. Continue with the construction of a National Cathedral;
3. Demolish and rebuild the Accra International Conference Centre;
5. Recruit more staff as government machinery;
6. Continue to make education at the High School level free; and
7. Continue to pay all all allowances, Per diems and ex-gratias
Then they (IMF) too, they are bogus and a big joke.
Dear IMF,
You don’t govern Ghana and you won’t be allowed to perpetuate the vicious cycle that makes the rich richer and the poor poorer in Africa, by deliberately overlooking the opulence, profligacy and total unwillingness to sacrifice on the part of our political elites.
Did you disingenuously tell our politicians to keep their savings and investments secured in foreign bank accounts and to use the pension money of the already impoverished public sector worker to fund the Debt Exchange Programme?
If you did, then your counsel was unintelligent. Our governments do not like to listen to us but they pay attention to whatever you tell them especially when we are in crisis. Yet, you guys at the IMF know that some of us sat in the same classrooms with you when we were studying abroad and we beat you terribly in exams. You are certainly not smarter than us. We won’t swallow hook, line and sinker your very inhuman prescription to sacrifice the future pension of our poor public sector workers.
Arise, Labor Unions in Ghana!!!
