Political commentator, Bright Simons has issued a sharp caution against over-reliance on the International Monetary Fund (IMF) as a credible evaluator of Ghana’s economic progress, citing structural and sovereign limitations that make such expectations unrealistic.
Speaking during a recent policy dialogue, the outspoken policy analyst argued that the IMF’s very nature as an intergovernmental organisation prevents it from serving as an impartial or robust critic of governments, including Ghana’s.
