If Ghanaians Knew the Economic Mess NPP Left Behind, We’d All Demand a Fast Track Court” – Economist

A United States-based Ghanaian economist, Dr. Sa-ad Iddrisu, has raised concerns over the dire state of Ghana’s economy, attributing the current financial struggles to the former New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration led by Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo as reported by Ghana Web on Friday, February 21, 2025.

Dr. Iddrisu, who is reportedly involved in ongoing work at Ghana’s Ministry of Finance, hinted at alarming economic data he has encountered.

However, he stated that he is bound by the oath of secrecy, preventing him from disclosing specific details.

Despite this restriction, the economist suggested that if the public were made aware of the extent of the economic challenges, there would be widespread calls for swift legal action against the former government.

“Sitting at the finance ministry and seeing what is in the books, Ghanaians have really been patient with the NPP in power and in opposition now,” he stated.

He further implied that the alleged mismanagement by the previous administration has left the country in a state of economic crisis.

Dr. Iddrisu warned that if the true extent of the situation were revealed, there would likely be demands for the establishment of a “fast track court” to address the perceived wrongdoing.

While the specifics of the economic data remain undisclosed, his comments have sparked discussions about the accountability of former government officials and the state of Ghana’s financial health.

Many are eager to see whether these claims will lead to further investigations or calls for legal measures.
