The Leader of the New Force Movement, Nana Kwame Bediako, popularly known as Cheddar, has announced that he will establish a National Sovereign Wealth Fund when voted to power in the December 7 election.
He made this known during the New Force Key Policy Launch on Sunday, September 1, 2024.
Mr. Bediako indicated that the fund would serve as a support to boost the economy and secure the nation’s wealth and resources.
“We are going to create the National Sovereign Wealth Fund; this is the new IMF. Well, at this very point, Ghana will help me launch the new IMF. Because verbally it is said but physically and mentally, we are about to implement it. This pillar is a new policy and it will disrupt and dissolve but eventually, it will rebuild our heritage value.”
He further criticized the extraction and export of the country’s mineral resources, stating that, he would put an end to such practice.
“In the past, our minerals have been extracted and exported for pennies, we are ending it. The National Sovereign Wealth Fund is the new IMF, independent and autonomous. It will collect every reserve and will keep it and protect it.”
