Ofori-Atta has exposed himself to public ridicule – Editor of ABC News

Gordon Asare-Bediako, who is in charge of ABC News, said that if the people want Ken Ofori-Atta out of his job, he should take his own advice and step down.

He thought that things shouldn't have gotten this bad. "Because for 98 Members of Parliament, and maybe even more, to write and say in public that they don't want you as a Finance Minister anymore, he should tell himself that it shouldn't have come to this," he said.

He also said that Mr. Ofori-Atta has let himself be made fun of in public.

Speaking on Prime Morning, on Friday, Mr. Asare-Bediako stated that this act can affect the party in the 2024 national elections because the public has decided and there’s a huge clarion call to do a reshuffle which they’re expecting the President to listen and take an action on.
“Nobody wants a president who has an adamant posturing and it’s not good for the party”, he said.
Mr. Asare-Bediako continued that, the President may admire the loyalty and competence of the Finance Minister, but it gets to a point when you listen to the voice of the people and prioritize their interest ahead of yours.
The Editor believes that stakeholders will respond and there will be stability in the system if the Finance Minister is changed. “So to me, the President will do himself a lot of good by making Ofori-Atta go after the Appropriation bill has been passed”, he mentioned.
