The minority in parliament has set September 5, 2023, as the day to embark on their planned protest against the Bank of Ghana (BoG) governor, Dr. Ernest Addison, and his deputies.

In collaboration with Civil Society Organizations, Progressive Forces and well meaning Ghanaians, the minority has indicated that the reason for the protest is due to an alleged printing of over GH¢80 billion by the BoG for the Akufo-Addo government.

This was contained in a letter dated Monday, August 21, 2023, signed by the Minority Leader, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson to the Greater Accra Regional Police Command.

“We write in line with sections ,1 2&3 of the Public Order Act 1994 (Act 491), to notify you of an impending public protest to be embarked upon by the Minority in Parliament in collaboration with Civil Society Organizations, Progressive Forces and other well-meaning Ghanaians.”

“The purpose of this protest is to express our revulsion against the illegal printing of money (about GH¢ 80 billion) between 2021 and 2022 by BOG for the corrupt Akufo-Addo/Bawumia/NPP government which led to a hyper-inflation rate of 54.1% in December 2022,” portions of the letter stated.

It further stated that the action of the central bank has pushed about  850,000 Ghanaians into poverty.

“This singular act of BOG has negatively impacted livelihoods and businesses and pushed about 850,000 Ghanaians into poverty in the year 2022 alone.”

“As representatives of the Ghanaian people, the Minority in Parliament is totally disgusted by the crass mismanagement and reckless mishandling of the affairs of the Bank of Ghana, which resulted in a gargantuan loss of GH¢ 60.8 billion and a negative equity of GH¢ 5.1 billion in 2022, with its attendant hardships on Ghanaians.”
