THEY SAY IF YOU DONT HOW YOU WILL DIE LOOK AT HOW YOU FALL ASLEEP. AFEDZI HAS MADE HEARTS OF OAK AN ORDINARY FOOTBALL CLUB AS IF HEARTS HAVE NOT EVEN ON A TROPHY BEFORE. THEY EVEN SLIPPED FROM RELEGATION BY LUCK IN LAST SEASON ALL UNDER THE NOSE OF AFEDZI MANAGEMENT. IF TOGBE COULDNT MANAGE A TEAM OF 33 PLAYERS HOW CAN HE MANAGE OR GOVERN BANK OF GHANA?

How can an ex convict who has not cleared his name as a jailed corrupt public official be made Governor of Bank of Ghana? Only in Ghana that Dr Yankey can even have a bank account. Let’s be serious

These guys are way too old. Mahama needs a sharp younger man/woman to head. Maybe a max a 45 - 50 year old. And the person should be apolitical

Sure, the spear needs a new solid shaft, says the adage. I will vouch for Dr, Sipa Yankey. It was in his role as chairman that saw the successful completion and handover of the Attuabo Gas plant. He is capable of bringing new fresh ideas to the messy Bank of Ghana. I wish Togbe could have taken this laudable hardworking position but for his role as a traditional chief.

Togbe Afede has never been the Chairman of the Council State. he was a member due to his position as Chairman of the national House of Chiefs. So, check your facts before you write.

They are very NARROW MINDED......and all they do is throw their titles and weight around....

He doesn't need a dime from government indeed. Nkwaseakeka saa. His whole business model rests on government contracts, from energy to finance. His Strategic African Securities has been sponging on government loan transactions and yet it was only Ken Ofori-Ata who was being crucified by the NDC. Let's see if Togbe's SAS is given any government contract. Hypocrites!

Dr. Johnson P. Asiama is the best bet for the job. He has in-depth knowledge about how things are structured at BoG and as a son of Volta Region he deserves it.
Dr. Nasiru Ishahaku has held the fort before. As a classmate to Bawumiah, he kept on sponsoring Bawumiah financially in the lead to the 2016 elections. He is a mole and nobody should think because he is a Northerner he deserves it.
This is the time to reset Ghana and we need tried and tested personalities like Dr. Asiama

We need fresh minds for this job. You can bring in current MDs of Banks in Ghana who has done well. Such as Mansa Nettey of of standard chartered bank as first female governor. She has performed creditably well. You can also maintain some directors Dr. Harvey who distinguished himself in academia. It's a balance of strategy, good corporate governance, human relationships and resources. You can also tap on Archibald Tannor a distinguished central banker, world bank association and expert knowledge in banking, economics and finance. We need a holistic, refined and preserved face for the Bank of Ghana

Not sure if YANKEY is qualified. He did 18 months at NSAWAM prison and therefore is a gazetted ex convict. KUFFUOR jailed his ass.

No civilized society will think of making this man a Director at a state-owned financial institution. How can he be made a whole Governor? You guys like playing too much.

Togbe Afede will be the right person to be the next Governor of the Bank of Ghana. He’s an honest and trustworthy person and hope the President will give him the job.

Togbe Afede is too tribalistic and inward-looking and will not be fair in his handling of financial issues involving Akans. Not Sipa-Yankey also who is a convicted felon. The others are alright.
