PAC hits at BOG Governor for snubbing committee

The Public Accounts Committee in Parliament has taken a swipe at the governor of the Bank of Ghana for consistently eluding the committee. MP for Abuakwa South, Lawyer Atta Akyea said the governor is fond of making excuses for appearing before the committee. His comments came after Dr. Henry Kofi Wampah failed to appear before the committee for the second day running,  with the excuse that he has some important official duties to performance.

Cal Bank Limited were the biggest losers of the day, dropping 5p to close at 1.00p, whereas Goil Company Limited recorded the biggest gain, gaining 1p  to close at 1.46 p.
