Franklin Cudjoe is the Chief Executive Officer of the IMANI Africa

The Cheif Executive Officer IMANI Africa, Franklin Cudjoe has accused the New Patriotic Party of misleading the public about its stewardship of the Ghanaian economy.

In a post on X on Saturday February 28, 2026, Franklin Cudjoe attributed recent signs of economic stabilisation to what he described as firm fiscal discipline by the current government, while laying blame for Ghana’s economic crisis at the doorstep of the previous NPP administration.

“Now that reckless borrowing has been reduced to a significant minimum, crony mobilisation fees have stopped, and the public sector is no longer bloated with incompetence, inflation is back to single digits, lending rates are down, and the cedi is stronger,” he wrote.

He claimed the cedi had appreciated by 40.7 percent against the US dollar, 30.9 percent against the British pound, and 24 percent against the euro, arguing that these gains reflected improved economic management rather than political coincidence.

He rejected attempts by NPP figures and sympathisers to downplay the party’s record in government, accusing them of what he called political ‘make-believe.’

“Who misses 54 per cent interest rates, pickpocketing investments, and a debt iceberg capable of sinking the Titanic? Massa, stop recruiting innocent election mourners into your political stunts school and start offering real, sensibly researched alternatives,” he stated.

Cudjoe further accused the NPP of overseeing wasteful spending, poorly conceived projects, and widespread corruption, which he said contributed to Ghana’s loss of access to international capital markets and its descent into junk credit status.
