Newsfile to discuss Ghana's IMF exit, ECG privatisation, attack on free speech, and repatriation of citizens from SA
Newsfile will discuss Ghana's IMF exit, ECG privatisation, attack on free speech, and repatriation of citizens from SA this Saturday on JoyNews and MyJoyOnline. Former Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia accused the Mahama administration of its course against reckless conduct and criminal behaviour, arguing that "democracy cannot become a shield for impunity." Ghana has begun repatriating citizens from South Africa following renewed xenophobic attacks targeting foreign African nationals and businesses.
The Institute of Economic Affairs pushed renewed discussions around resource nationalism and stronger state ownership of strategic minerals and extractive resources. The Ghana Chamber of Mines warns that uncertainty around mining policy and state intervention could damage investor confidence and weaken future growth. Ghana says it has effectively completed its IMF programme after reaching a staff-level agreement on the final review of the country's support arrangement.
Samson Lardy Anyenini and his panel will be on JoyNews and MyJoyOnline this Saturday at 8 a.m. for the analysis. Newsfile airs live on the JoyNews channel on digital satellite channels 421 on DSTV and 144 on GoTV, and streams on JoyNews' Facebook or YouTube channels. Viewers can also follow the discussion by tuning in to Joy 99.7 FM or Luv 99.5 FM on the radio or stream the discussion live on either Google or Apple Podcasts.
