Minister claims finance ministry’s ‘controversial’ event was just a durbar
The deputy minister of Information, Pius Enam Hadzide, has shed light on the rationale behind the decision of the ministry of finance to organize an event.
Per a report by Peacefmonline.com, he dismissed suggestions that the finance ministry organized a party to celebrate an economic “hat-trick”.
The finance ministry courted controversy when they reportedly organized a party to mark the successful Eurobond, the completion of the IMF-ECF programme and the appreciation of the cedi, something considered as an economic “hat trick”.
