“We’ve had difficulties in the past few years trying to reposition our economy to grow again. Some basic statistics that all of you are familiar with have pushed us back; the energy sector crisis, the global food crisis, and many others and Ghana is yet to escape from all of these crises.
“We are going through the processes with the International Monetary Fund right now and hopefully by the middle of this month or February, a full-blown IMF program will be put in place which will help us repair our public finances which took a big hit from external forces.”
