    Sophia Akuffo justified her decision to join the retirees by publicly expressing her displeasure with their inclusion in the Domestic Debt Exchange Programme (DDEP).

    She joined a group of pensioners to select the Ministry of Finance in Accra on Friday 10 February.

    In an interview with the media, Sophia Akuffo said, “These are all people who have worked, they have worked very hard, they could have left the country when others were going but they stayed, they worked for the nation.

    “We have had our ups and downs. A lot of us were from generations where we were encouraged to save for tomorrow and all that. We have been through times where all your savings become nonsense because of some government policies, then over the years, bit by bit, people have become more confident in the economy and investments.

    “Quite a number of people here today, when they retired last two years they have put everything into government bonds, it is a contract and now all of a sudden, you virtually want to force them to agree with you that the repayment of the yield of their investment should be as you dictate it. Why?”

    She also blasted the government for not being able to account for loans made over the years.

    “Why are we in the mess? Nobody has fully explained to us, yes we took debt, what was it used for? and where is the accountability? Exactly what was it used for? You are not telling us about how you are going to be able to make things better but just that ‘help me and I help you’, no, you help yourself first, let me see you doing something serious because we have seen these sorts of things too many times.
