Mr. Ato Forson further stated that there is an urgent need for BoG’s internal operations to be reviewed to ensure that no losses would be posted or repeated this year.
In a tweet the Builsa South lawmaker stated that Parliament is a body to probe matters such as the challenges that have bedeviled the Bank of Ghana (BoG).
“Our call on Governors of BOG to resign is in addition to processes we are activating in Parliament to ensure accountability as far as the gargantuan loss of Ghc60 billion.
