Excellent presentation! Are the authorities aware of the fact presented?
His understanding of things is like a simpleton. High interest rates add to costs of production and prices. Any child knows that. WHAT HE DOESNT UNDERSTAND LIKE THE SIMPLETON ACCOUNTANT THAT HE IS, IS THE EFFECT OF RAISING TH ...

Surely, it can't be worse than what we are experiencing now if he's even interested in running BOG. Even, so called economic whizz kids have performed abysmally.
That's what he is campaigning for. And it would be worse with his infantile,narrow minded understanding of economics and arrogance. Bogus ecobomics. Doesnt know anything, just arrogance, infantile thinking that he is smart an ...

You only raise Policy rate when inflation is demand driven and not supply driven as in our case.The continuous hikes in policy rate will only crowd out businesses.The monies printed by BOG is in the hands of Government rather ...

You think BoG is like managing Hearts of Oak for 25 hours a day unsuccessfully?
Do that and see what happens to producer price inflation! You don't anything, you won't keep quiet. You open your mouth and people confirm that you don't know much
Producer prices would keep increasing, sustaining the prices of final goods in the market. If you don't know anything, FYI
Very funny when you denigrate the author as a "simpleton" with commentary that is incoherent, riddled with errors and devoid of any substantive reasons why the analysis is wrong. Just saying!
This is someone who collapsed Pioneer Kitchenware PK in Tema, talking about management of a central bank? Rural bank even, he would collapse it! PKL was a good company on the stock exchange, this guy bought majority shares in ...

When his incompetence is highlighted he would come and be pointing at Sunon power plant and Africa World, Chinese owned and managed companies that he has 5% shares in to be their local agent
You’re clearly deranged and it’s glaring.Did you understand the issues at all? You’re the people who play the man with the ball.When you’re asked to provide details about this crass you’re spewing, you’d be strugg ...

This man keeps claiming high interests cause currency depreciation. He doesn't know how stupid he sounds. Such an idiot says he attended business school! Unbelievable! He should stick to accounting. Lol!!!!
The implied accusation that BoG raised interest rate to profit and pay high salaries from it doesn't even make any analytical sense. In those years that the monetary policy rate was 15%, much lower than the current rates, wit ...

In my life, I have never seen any character so anxious to reveal everyday that he doesn't know much finance or economics, so arrogant that he would never accept that he is wrong. High policy rates have been used by central ba ...

Yale should come for their certificate from this clown
Doesn't know squat! If I were him, I would hide my face for documenting such rubbish economics so publicly. It's on record for people to laugh at 20years from now. Tweeea

Those who promised to perform wonders and had the support of the masses have messed us up big time.
At this point, I'm willing to try a lone preacher.
Is a Yale business graduate really saying this? Lol! Unbelievably shocking
Please if you understand economics and the issues, presents your thoughts and stop the insults, idiot!
You wait. We will campaign against you going anywhere near Bank of Ghana management. You just wait for the time and see something. Uncivilized buffoon. Just wait
SHAME ON YOU,
So-called Ghanaian, tell us what Togbe said that is not true, or does not make sense. Are you happy about the country’s situation?
The Problem is because he didn't Experte Togbe for that brilliant precentation. @Ghanaians just shit on his dirty single pantes. God bless nana Afede, may he leave long. Greetings from B/A.
Togbe Afede, "may he live long"
