Kwesi Botchwey’s damning verdict on current economy

Former Minister of Finance and Economic Planning Professor Kwesi Botchwey says Ghana’s current economy is showing semblance of what pertained in the early 1980s.

That period witnessed one of the hardest times including a near famine in the country.

Speaking at the launch of ‘The Children of House No. D13, South Suntreso Kumasi’, a book jointly authored by the Ahwois, Prof Botchwey said: “Sadly, we don’t appear to have learnt our lessons [and] are moving now so perilously close to the edge of the precipice, where we were in the early 80s with our economy saddled with debts.”
