When your exchange rate is struggling and your external vulnerability is mounting, again you use the herbs from the central bank.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe third aliment is that the central bank helps to deal with the interest rates. So you have a tree that is fit for purpose in dealing with all these.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf that tree itself is sick, how does it help you to treat the sickness if its efficacy is required? So you need to reset the herbalist. The reason why we\u2019re having inflation all over the place, interest rates all over the place, and exchange rates all over the place is because the vehicle for dealing with price development itself is not fit for purpose.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNormally, in monetary terms, we say the BoG is monetary insolvent. The BoG is currently monetary insolvent. In order words, cannot cure this ailment without drinking the same poison that led it to die,\u201d Isaac Adongo stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>#GhanaPolls2024<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>#CitiVerify<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>#ElectionBureau<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u2014\u2013<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Explore the world of impactful news with CitiNewsroom on WhatsApp!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click on the link to join the Citi Newsroom channel for curated, meaningful stories tailored just for YOU<\/strong>:<strong> https:\/\/whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaCYzPRAYlUPudDDe53x<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>No spam, just the stories that truly matter! #StayInformed #CitiNewsroom #CNRDigital<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Member of Parliament for Bolgatanga Central and Spokesperson on the John Mahama Campaign Team for the Economy, Isaac Adongo, has announced that the next National Democratic Congress (NDC) government will overhaul the Bank of Ghana to ensure it fulfils its mandate effectively.
