Korle Klotey constituency's Member of Parliament, Dr Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings, has firmly stated that the Minority in Parliament will persist in guiding Ghanaians to ensure the government is held accountable and to uphold principles of effective governance.
Dr Agyeman-Rawlings conveyed that Ghanaians are weary of the irresponsible conduct exhibited by certain individuals holding positions within the Akufo-Addo administration. She particularly highlighted Dr Ernest Addison, the Bank of Ghana Governor, who oversaw the Central Bank's losses amounting to approximately GHS 60.8 billion in 2022.
In addition to that the Bank of Ghana has allocated $250 million for the construction of a new headquarters, a move that has sparked public outcry at a time the country’s economy has declined.
Speaking on Dwaboase on TV XYZ, the MP argued that the explanation given by the governor, Dr Ernest Addison about the losses the Bank incurred did not make sense and that is the reason the Minority wants him and his deputies out of office.
The Minority has planned to march to the BoG headquarters in protest of what the group terms as gross recklessness led by Dr Addison.
Asked what the Minority would have achieved with the protest dubbed #OccupyBoG, the MP said the losses had not happened before and the group would have made its case clear with the march.
“There is no business as usual; what has happened has not happened before. As the leader in a particular place, when that place goes wrong, the most dignified thing to do is to step down,” she stated.
According to her, if even Dr Addison refuses to resign, posterity will judge them and the world will know they didn’t superintendent over wrongdoing.
Meanwhile, Dr Ernest Addison has dismissed claims that the Central Bank breached procurement laws in pursuit of the construction of the edifice.
