He has asked the Bank of Ghana to fulfill his demands within the seven-day period stipulated by the RTI Act.
"Detailed particulars of the status of the write-offs made in respect of government’s indebtedness to BoG."
"Reasons for the combined losses of circa GHS70 billion as stated in the BoG’s financial statements for 2022 and 2023," an excerpt of his request stated.
