Franklin Cudjoe, President of think tank Imani Africa has called for the arrest of government officials who said the country will not head to the IMF.
This call comes on the back of the arrest of Kwaku Rafiki a social med activist over post he made about the finances of the country.
According to the posts, Kwaku Rafiki urged investor so withdraw their money to avoid what he forsee.
Reacting to the arrest, Imani Boss believes persons who said there was not going to be “haircuts” should be arrested too.
Kwaku Rafiki, an activist sympathetic to the National Democratic Congress (NDC), was arrested by National Security operatives for allegedly spreading fear and panic through his posts on social media. After much engagement between Kwaku Rafiki’s lawyers and the national security and the Ghana Police Service, he was granted bail.
Mr. Franklin Cudjoe wondered who gave the order for his arrest.
“Who gave the order for Kwaku to be picked up? I have a few recommendations. Those who said we were not going to the IMF and No Haircuts on investments could be invited too. The economy is stupid,” he wrote.
Complaints about investors having the value of their investments reduced have become common on social media recently. These complaints come on the back of a promise by President Akufo-Addo that no investors will lose any value of their investments.
