How the IMF can best protect the future of children in Ghana

The IMF can best protect the future of children in Ghana, by demanding anti-corruption reforms before providing funds for the government that has bankrupted their nation. It can do so by:

1) Asking for passage of new laws by Ghana's Parliament giving prosecutorial powers to the Auditor General.

2) Demanding new laws being passed under a certificate of urgency, to end public procurement sole-sourcing.

3) Demanding passage of new laws banning all mining in forest reserves to protect the remainder of Ghana's priceless natural heritage.

4) Demanding new laws requiring all ministerial and high level public sector appointees to publicly publish their assets, and those of their spouses, before assuming office - and immediately after their tenures end.

5) Demanding passage of new laws indemnifying whistleblowers from prosecution and guaranteeing their being rewarded with 30 percent shares of recovered stolen public funds made possible by their whistleblowing.

The children of Ghana know just how caring the Managing Director of the IMF, Kristalina Georgieva, is. She must not let them down. No. No. No. Bailing out their leaders without laws to drastically reduce high-level corruption will be tantamount to fetching water in a wicker basket.

Ghana's rapacious and hard-of-hearing ruling elites must be left to stew in their own juice if they resist the aforementioned reforms designed to curtail the egregious and ruinious state-capture rent-seeking designed to send their personal net worth to stratospheric heights, which is ruining the future of children in Ghana. Enough is enough. Case closed. Yoooooooo...
