    This guy is not a critical thinker to head a think tank. Think tanks do speak like this during crisis, he is an embarrassment to Ghana

  • Kojo Appiah, N.Y. 10 years ago

    Is it some joke that is going on and some think tanks are excited? The depreciation has been as a result of several years of corruption and mismanagement.
    Gives a break!

    It is easy to criticise!! What would you do if you were in charge? What do you suggest should be done to halt the slide of the Cedi? We are waiting for your solution!!

  • Sefadzi 10 years ago

    Point of correction. The cedi can never dance Kpalongo but is rather dancing Damba.
