President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo must reduce the size of his government as a way of dealing with the challenges facing the economy, an Economist and Professor of Finance, Godfred Bokpin, has said.
For him, the current challenges facing the country present an opportunity for the President to drop the number of his appointees.
He told TV3 in interview on Monday June 27 that the economy can no longer bear the size of the government.
“We know that the government size is big. Without development like [challenges facing economy] there will never be any incentive for you to cut down on government size. So this is the best platform.
“If you fail to do that now then, when are you going to get that done? Increasingly, it is obvious that the economy cannot bear the size of the government that we are running,” he said.
