Economists in Ghana have expressed worries about developments in Parliament could heighten investment uncertainty about the direction of the economy.
According to them, there are critical fiscal policies that must be examined by Parliament and passed on time, but could be delayed by the disagreement between the two major parties; the National Democratic Congress and the New Patriotic Party, on who has the Majority in Parliament.
This, they say, is one that could send bad signals to investors and businesses seeking to operate in Ghana.
It follows the indefinite suspension of Paliament by the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, in a stalemate between the two major parties in the House regarding who has the majority seats.
Here is Associate Professor of Finance at the Andrews University in the USA, Williams Peprah, speaking about how this can affect investor confidence in Ghana.
