\n\"Thank<\/p>\n

\nThank you for leading stakeholder engagements – Ken Ofori-Atta to Prez Akufo-Addo <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Minister of Finance, Mr Ken Ofori-Atta has expressed appreciation to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for leading Tuesday’s stakeholder engagements on the economy.<\/h2>\n

In a series of tweets by the Finance Minister’s office, it was explained that the stakeholder engagements will continue on Wednesday with market women.<\/p>\n

The Finance Minister has come under pressure this week with some members from the majority caucus asking President Akufo-Addo to remove him, together with Charles Adu Boahen, a Minister of State at the Finance sector from office.<\/p>\n

The MPs believe that the removal of the two will help restore some confidence in the sector.<\/p>\n

Already, the leader of government business in Parliament, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu has disclosed that President Akufo-Addo has told members of the majority caucus clamouring for the removal of the Finance Minister to consider the timing of their call.<\/p>\n

The timing here is in reference to the discussions with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which the Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta was leading and they are getting closer to a deal.<\/p>\n

Again, President Akufo-Addo also wants the members to consider the timing for the preparation of the 2023 budget, the impact of Mr Ofori-Atta\u2019s removal on the economy, the impact on the budget and the crafting of the 2023 budget.<\/p>\n

President Akufo-Addo, according to Mr Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, who is also the Minister of Parliamentary affairs made the \u201cpassionate plea\u201d when he met with the caucus on Tuesday night after some members of the group had held a press conference to demand the\u00a0<\/span>sacking of Mr Ofori-Atta\u00a0as Finance Minister, and Charles Adu Boahen, as a Minister of State at the Finance Ministry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stakeholder engagement is key to ensuring that all voices are heard as we work towards Ghana\u2019s economic recovery. BOG officials this morning had a very productive meeting with Heads of Banks and Forex Bureaus. #RobustRecoveryAhead<\/a> #GhanaFirst<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/2GWA157ntK<\/a><\/p>\n
