The youth wing of the NPP on Tuesday called on the NDC to unreservedly apologise to Ghanaians for exposing the country to international embarrassment due to false data it provided to the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

The wing noted that the act has caused the country great financial losses and dismissed the party's assertions that the fund only imposed a penalty because of allegations raised to that effect by the present government.

A statement released on Tuesday by the acting National Organiser of the NPP Youth Wing, Mr Kwame Twumasi-Awuah said, "The IMF is a well respected body with highly qualified experts, who depend on facts and not hearsay and allegations of others to draw their conclusions".

"Does the NDC want to say that whatever is said by the present the government is accepted hook, line and sinker by the IMF and for that matter other similar organisations?"

Mr Twumasi-Awuah said the presentation of false data constituted a breach of trust reposed in the NDC by Ghanaians for which it should render an unqualified apology.
