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”.

Hadzide, speaking to the issue on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo’, said what the finance ministry organized was a staff durbar with a touch of promoting made in Ghana goods.
