He added that President Akufo-Addo's promise to bring the economy back on track was far from reality.

A Political Science Lecturer at the Cape Coast University (UCC) in the Central region has said President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is not in charge of the Economic Management Team, therefore, "his promise to bring back the economy is far from a reality".

Jonathan Asante Okyere is of the view that the president is not in charge because he does not pay heed to many of the suggestions and ideas that have been thrown at him by all level-headed and well-meaning personalities in the country.

"People have made all manner of suggestions to the president to help save the economy from total collapse yet the president is not heeding to all these advice," he said.

He explained that the way the economy is going down by the day does not even suggest there is an Economic Management Team in place.

Mr Okyere said many level-headed people have suggested to the president to as a matter of urgency sack his Finance Minster but he is unrelenting.
