Ghana’s economy has not collapsed – Economist

Emmanuel Amoah Darkwah, a certified economist, has refuted claims that Ghana’s economy is in freefall.

According to the expert, although Ghana is experiencing an economic crisis, our economy has not yet crashed.

In an interview with Frontline on Rainbow Radio 87.5FM, he stated, “Ghana’s economy is not in a state of collapse.
A situation has arisen.
The government must take the reins.

In light of the current issue, he recalled how the government demonstrated leadership during the COVID-19 era and he has urged the president to act similarly.

“Ghana was a shining example during the COVID-19 era, so what kind of leadership are they showing in this economic crisis to solve the problem,” Mr. Darkwah asked. Ghana is not the only country dealing with the problem. It is international. However, how do you demonstrate leadership?”

He said we needed the government to show sterling leadership. I would say the economy has collapsed. It is crooked, and we can do something about it. We need to show leadership to solve the problem.
