He may also thoroughly experience an exuberant modicum of smugness approximately his frivolous likening of the torrents of requires his instantaneously resignation to the pesky and importunate call for for a father to desert his youngsters withinside the center of a hard own circle of relatives crisis. This is handiest due to the fact the Finance Minister, Mr. Kenneth K. Ofori-Atta, can be too conceited to presume that he ought to so cavalierly patronize the very humans whose fiduciary believe in him he so royally bungled, whilst he and a number of his near associates, family and buddies criminally tried to rip-off Ghanaian taxpayers in what has infamously turn out to be referred to as the Agyapa Heritage Investment Deal or, nicely speaking, Scam.
So, the following maximum logical query becomes: What form of a father determine ought to Ken Ofori-Atta be realistically evaluating himself to, besides person who did now no longer supply a hoot approximately the welfare of his very own youngsters, to start with? (See “ ‘I Will Not Resign as Finance Minister’ – Ofori-Atta” Ghanaweb.com 7/16/22). As the caption of this column actually factors out, the decision for the resignation of the Finance Minister isn't always predicated on a unmarried causation or causative issue however a proverbial mountain of proof pointing to the truth that the Akufo-Addo cousin abjectly lacks the type of altruism and sacrificial management temperament this is maximum wished right now to noticeably and regularly pass Ghana up and beforehand at the socioeconomic improvement ladder.
The Columbia and Yale universities-knowledgeable son of the well-known firebrand economist and statesman, Dr. Jones K. Ofori-Atta, past due, Deputy Finance Minister withinside the authorities of the past due Prime Minister Kofi Abrefa Busia, is smack on the right track whilst he asserts that the selection through the Akufo-Addo authorities to solicit the economic help of the Bretton-Woods status quo of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have been basically because of such unexpected and regionally uncontrollable forces and instances because the Covid-19 Global Pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine War, which got here nearly at once withinside the wake of the abatement of the so-referred to as China-Virus. In different words, there has, indeed, happened an unexpected seismic paradigmatic shift in worldwide financial affairs that necessitated that Ghana go back to its beyond uneasy courting with the dual Bretton-Woods institutions of the IMF and The World Bank.
Fairly truthful enough, besides that the seamy and repulsive underbelly of the information of the abortive Agyapa Heritage Investment Scam factors to some thing completely exclusive from the conventional picture and temperament of the Benevolent Father than the Finance Minister might have Ghanaians accept as true with have been the tenor of his control in their economic affairs and/or economic policies. He is likewise proper to have a look at that realistic humans do, indeed, extrade their minds from time to time; however, of course, it isn't always after the way of the no-brainer try and hocus-pocus their manner withinside the flagrantly amateurish manner wherein Mr. Ofori-Atta instead overtly and patently unwisely tried to apply the E-Levy Act to play what might quickly come to be a band-resource recreation with the very complicated and complex economic predicament with which the us of a changed into epically confronted.
All blood knots and ties and familial pleasure aside, the unvarnished fact desires to be advised boldly and fearlessly and directly with out prefer or reserve. And it's far the ineluctable truth that because the Chief Director of the control of Ghana’s economic assets and economic coverage initiatives, Mr. Ofori-Atta has irredeemably and irreparably didn't perform, and the longer he maintains to adamantly live at the process or be blindly saved through President Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on the helm of the us of a’s economic and economic affairs, the extra more and more more hard it turns into to guard the gross incompetence of a person whose talents and talents, hence a ways, appearance a ways extra superb on paper or on his curriculum vitae than the realistic fact at the ground.
That the person nicely seems to be in scientific denial of the truth that he has irredeemably failed at his process and should directly supply manner to a extra succesful person is flawlessly ordinary and human, in line with professional psychologists. Still, this ought now no longer to definitely in any manner blind President Akufo-Addo to the inescapable popularity of the truth that what's direly at stake right here and now's his legacy and his picture and popularity withinside the annals of postcolonial Ghanaian management and withinside the pantheon of these of our leaders and heroes who rose to the event whilst the exigencies of the instances demanded the same, as opposed to needlessly and vacuously sacrificing the collective health and future of the sovereign humans of Ghana at the vulgar and mundane altar of nepotism.
If, indeed, Nana Akufo-Addo simply believes withinside the opportunity of the New Patriotic Party keeping strength past January 7, 2025, then, of course, it definitely is going with out announcing that Ghana’s former Attorney-General and Minister of Justice has a bounden duty to concentrate to the solemn voices and the soulful cries of the Ghanaian humans through doing the proper thing, that's to both call for the instantaneously resignation of Mr. Ofori-Atta, as Finance Minister, or directly expel this cussed and administratively obstructive operative from his cabinet. It has additionally been extensively recounted for a while and centuries that “The Voice of the People is likewise the Voice of God.” By all means, Nana Akufo-Addo should permit justice and sanity be successful directly and in toto!
