If the Bank did put out that information, then Bawumiah is right.
Bawumiah will come out to be right no matter the arguments arising and from where they come. Bawumiah is too strong,
These politicians will kill us all: they will turn an ANT into an ELEPHANT, just to get into position to STEAL !
The correction was made that same day.Bawumia should cross check before coming out with the information.
the lecture did not cover only one topic.the research he made might have taken more than one month.He is not at fault if he didn't cross check b4 coming out with it.once they admit including GHANA in their list before, then ...

I think Abbas can not reason well
I tell you NPP will not have any good result to the nation. They have been tried and failed I don't need the 2nd chance it will be worse.
If there is anything worse than what we are seeing or about to hit us then I prefer that to this USELESSNESS, lies and complete DISGRACE.

NDC shd sue AfDB for defamation for first putting that information on their website,that is where Bawumia got his information from.Stupid people ruling us why waste your time on Bawumia for telling us?
If it's really true that AFDB put out that information by mistake then I think they might have done Ghana irreparable harm. It could be part of the data Moody used to downgrade us. If the government is serious they should sue ...

AfDB is doing damage control and propaganda for a failed African government.
Taking Ghana out of the list does not change the crisis facing the economy.
Lies everywhere: right, left, front, back, and centre. Dr Bawumia and like-minded people should reflect on the WORDS in the opening stanza of our NATIONAL PLEDGE
Dr. Bawumia's deception is proportional to the increase in his girth lately..
Dr. Bawumia check your facts well before you make them public. Politics should not make you turn blind eyes ti the truth.
Where do you want him to check the facts that is why you guys are sleeping in the darkness when the error collected did they publish it you should check the fact pls don't support barbaric leaders and remain in hanger
But the statement admits that they mistakenly put Ghana on the blacklist. So they the IMF is at fault
And the same day they changed it. So bawumiah should also know thst they changed it. Look this bawumia guy thinks he knows everything. He is just making fool out of him self. People can do research and find the truth thanks t ...

Don't blame Dr Bawumia once the AfDB confessed that there was an error of judgement. This may be a face saving attempt to discredit the work of Bawumia. With these errors how do you expect us to trust info/data you churn out?

NDC PROPAGANDA,WEAK PRESIDENT SO FAR IN GHANA HISTORY,MAHAMA
in as much as u want power at all cost . u should be measured and put accurate information to the benefit of the many student ur educating. mischief won't take us anywhere.Truth should stand at all times.
When did the AFDB rectify the error? Hmmmm that mean Bawumia has no current update. Poor Bawumia. Please NPP members, tell Bawumia to stop destroying the brains of our future leaders. We beg him.
WHETHER THE SANCTION WAS WRONG OR RIGHT,
GHANA WAS PUT THERE IN THE LIST BEFORE THE ADB RETRIEVE GHANA FROM THE LIST,SO BAWUMIA WAS RIGHT IN ADRESS,
Npp wants power at any price, including fabricating stories about mother Ghana. Shameless buffoons and nation wreckers..

The question should not be how Bawumiah got it wrong but how the bank got it wrong? How many countries have been falsely blacklisted in the past? And at what rate do the bank commit this error?
NPP mole at AFDB known by Bawumia intentionally put Ghana's name at the point of publishing just to make this cheap point. He paid CUC to be hosted. Your question is now answered Ntra.
At least, there was a sanction. We will never be happy when Ghana is sanctioned. May the Lord save us from this economic crisis. From Isaac Mensah, Akumadan.

How will a big bank like AfDB says they made an error by blacklisting Ghana... Do they really know the damage it could cause the nation? Why did they wait till now before they're clarifying it.
