By Justice Dzido On Jul 17, 2018

The Minority in Parliament wants the government to as a matter of urgently organize a national forum to brainstorm with various stakeholders on how to grow the Ghanaian economy.

According to them, the dire situation in which the economy finds itself requires a national non-partisan approach to put it back on track.

Speaking at the minority mid-year round table, Minority Spokesperson on Finance, Cassiel Ato Forson said the government must admit that the economy is on the wrong track and ask for help.

According to him ,how the economy is run by the NPP led administration is such on a bad note and that, people of Ghana deserve better.

He also said the government must apologize to Ghanaians for its inability to ensure to organize a national forum to find solutions to problem

The last time such a forum took place was in 2014 under the John Mahama, out of which came the Senchi consensus but was boycotted by the New Patriotic Party then in opposition.

Meanwhile, the Minority has chastised the NPP government for delivering “hell” although it promised “heaven”.

Cassiel Ato Forson at the caucus’ round table on Monday said, “[even though they] promised heaven on earth, is rather delivering hell to the good people of the country”.
