"Whether Ghana or Nigeria or the biggest part of sub-Saharan African countries getting a bailout in the form of debt cancellation or whatever other form they get, I think the solution really for indebted countries in Africa is not so much bailouts, but it is the interest of the financial institutions, particularly the IMF and the World Bank, when they bail out these African countries or the heavily-indebted countries, on where does the money actually go?" she suggested.
"So I think it is a little bit hypocritical for the developed world to say we are forgiving you here, when in the actual sense they are going to turn around Ghana and say the country is going to go back and say, you know what, we actually need money for the health sector now. We need money to improve the mineral sector. So to cut the long story short, it doesn't guarantee any change on the ground for the country which has benefited from the decision," the Nkumba University lecturer said.
