Otchere-Darko Begs NDC to Back Ofori-Atta’s ‘Critical’ Budget

The 2023 budget is a “crucial” one, Danquah Institute founder Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko has said.

The president’s cousin said the budget cannot “suffer a fate similar to the 2022 budget and its revenue measures”.

Mr Otchere-Darko warned that ongoing talks with the International Monetary Fund could suffer a jolt if the budget does not go through.

“It could completely derail negotiations with the Fund if not passed”.

“Critical to this”, he noted, “are its revenue generation measures”.

“We plead the NDC joins NPP in this for Ghana”.

Thursday’s 2022 budget is crucial. It can’t suffer a fate similar to the 2022 budget and its revenue measures. It could completely derail negotiations with the Fund if not passed. Critical to this are its revenue generation measures. We plead the NDC joins NPP in this for Ghana.
