He warned that such actions could damage the credibility of an important state institution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe way the NDC want to politicise the Bank of Ghana, it will hit us in the face,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Glover criticised political actors for speaking publicly about the Bank\u2019s financial issues before the institution itself addresses them. According to him, this goes against proper governance and communication processes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have party members holding press conferences when the Bank itself has not even spoken,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He added that if the situation is not addressed quickly, it could lead to the politicisation of other state institutions. \u201cIf we don\u2019t stop this now, they will politicise everything. It\u2019s a recipe for disaster,\u201d he warned.<\/p>\n<p>Glover also questioned why political figures are leading discussions about the Bank\u2019s financial position instead of allowing the Bank of Ghana to communicate officially.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis could have been done by the Bank of Ghana themselves,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>His comments come at a time when the Bank\u2019s financial situation is under pressure. The 2025 Annual Report shows that its deficit has increased from GH\u00a29.48 billion in 2024. This is the fourth year in a row that the Bank has recorded losses, after deficits of GH\u00a260.9 billion in 2022 and GH\u00a210.5 billion in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Glover stressed that while accountability is important, political interference should not overshadow the role of institutions like the Bank of Ghana.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This blog is managed by the content creator and not GhanaWeb, its affiliates, or employees.
