Ghana’s economic salvation lies not in shifting geo-political allegiances – Dr Atuahene

Dr. Richmond Akwasi Atuahene, a Financial Analyst, argues that Ghana's economic salvation does not lie in shifting geopolitical allegiances, but rather in a radical domestic structural transformation. Despite the Cabinet's decision to apply for membership in the BRICS bloc, which comprises Brazil, China, Egypt, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Iran, Russia, South Africa, and the United Arab Emirates, Dr. Atuahene insists that this move will not cure the systemic vulnerabilities of the Ghanaian economy.

He emphasizes the importance of dismantling the colonial-era "Guggisberg economy" and replacing it with a modern, self-sustaining, value-added model by focusing on value addition through processing raw materials locally.
