A Ghanaian political analyst and a businessman in the United Kingdom, Mr. Ernest Kwaku Kobeah, has advised Ghanaians and “Arise Ghana” demonstration organisers to understand the global challenge which has caused many countries to languish in economic crises.
According to Mr. Ernest Kobeah, an NDC presidential hopeful, the world is facing a global challenge, a situation which he said must be considered by all manner of persons in other to contribute their quota to help their country.
“Ghana was not exempted from COVID-19 pandemic which hit the world and caused many countries economy to collapse, and with this reason, any demonstration is not necessary because no country is safe from this pandemic,” he stated.
Mr. Kobeah continued that as the world was about to experience normalcy, the issue of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine also came to bare, and therefore organisers of demonstrations against any government are doing it for their own parochial interest.
The price of diesel in United Kingdom is now 199.9 pounds whilst LPG is now sold at 97.9 pounds, which clearly shows that the world is facing a challenge now, he stated.
Mr. Kobeah stressed that, government irrespective of the difficult times, should also try and reduce some taxes on fuel to help reduce fuel price.
With regards to the security issues in the country, Mr. Kobeah said terrorists in our neighbouring countries can take advantage of these recent demonstrations and break into the country, and noted that it is about time the National Security, the Armed Forces and the Police Service become proactive and prevent these terrorists from entering into to the country.
