President Akufo-Addo has asked the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to support economic programmes put together by the government.
This was done through a telephone conversation between the President and the IMF Managing Director, Miss Kristalina Georgieva.
A statement issued by the Information Ministry on Friday, July 1, added that government has already decided to engage the IMF for support after a cabinet meeting held on June 30, 2022.
“The engagement with the IMF will seek to provide a balance of payment support as part of a broader effort to quicken Ghana’s build back in the face of challenges induced by the Covid-19 pandemic and, recently, the Russia-Ukraine crises,” the statement added.
