The new CEO said the profits dropped because the investments by the previous CEO not yielding returns. How can she tell us this story.

They are still making profit despite the drop anyway. So its also not bad just that the margin dropped so they should step up their game to avoid further decline in future

I had no idea MIIF undertook so many initiatives and investments under the Koranteng guy. So what is happening.

Equity Investments are long term and sovereign funds invest at 11 year horizons. It will be silly to expect returns within a year or 2 of investments. She does not know what she is talking about.

A drop of GHS 800 million is almost a 50% drop in profit. This is steep, very steep and must be looked into.

If the previous investment strategy was flawed, why has the current management retained many of those investments instead of divesting them?

MIIF is being collapsed. Over 40% drop in profits in year and all the news of resignations and unconstitutional sack of old staff is definitely bad management. Let's give time some time

A near 50% decline in profitability within a single year cannot simply be dismissed as a transition issue. Leadership is ultimately measured by results, not explanations.

The question is simple: why isn't the current leadership building on the strong foundation that was inherited? Institutions should move forward, not backwards.

An almost GH¢800 million reduction in profit is not a minor setback. Shareholders and the Ghanaian public deserve clear answers and accountability.

Blaming the transition cannot become a permanent excuse. After a year in office, performance indicators should speak louder than explanations.

The figures tell a troubling story. A drop of this magnitude demands transparency, accountability, and a credible recovery strategy.

Time will ultimately judge every administration. For now, the available financial results suggest that the current management has substantial work to do to restore confidence. This is too bad

Results don't lie. Nearly half of MIIF's profits have disappeared under the current leadership. That is a performance crisis, not a communication problem

If a CEO inherits a profitable institution, the expectation is to improve it—not preside over one of its sharpest profit declines.

Leadership is not about press releases. It is about protecting value, growing returns, and strengthening institutions. Where is the evidence?

Good leaders inherit institutions and leave them stronger. The current financial performance raises doubts about whether that is happening.

The new CEO gave an excuse that the amendment gives her only 2% of royalties for operations and investments but this is entirely untrue. She still has access to the royalties even if it's small, she should be able to turn it around for greater gains and stop the lazy work.

When experienced professionals are removed through political witch-hunts instead of orderly transitions, institutional performance inevitably suffers. Strong institutions are built on continuity, not vendettas

Exactly. If market conditions are difficult, then this is the time to demonstrate leadership through new initiatives, strategic investments, and a credible pipeline of opportunities. Instead, the public conversation has been dominated by accusations against previous management and reports of staff dismissals. Institutions move forward by presenting solutions, not assigning blame.

Strategic state institutions should never become casualties of political transitions. Leadership changes should preserve institutional knowledge, protect talent, and ensure continuity. Politicizing transitions through perceived witch-hunts risks weakening the very institutions entrusted with safeguarding national assets
