This is the seventeenth time Ghana is going to the IMF. In addition every one of the 17 outings have contrasting element causes. Despite the fact that this most recent commitment is connected to the Covid-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war, had policymakers assumed their part in displaying discipline in executing strategies and laying out foundations — there would be a financial sanctuary for the economy when hit by the worldwide monetary emergency.
