It is Day 7 of the picketing at the Finance Ministry by the pensioners who are individual bondholders seeking exemption from government’s Domestic Debt Exchange Programme (DDEP).
The former Chief Justice, Sophia Akuffo, joined her colleagues for the second day at the grounds also demanding exclusion for the pensioners.
She had earlier expressed her displeasure over the programme asking government to account for the loans it took to bring the state to the level it has to restructure her debt before getting a bailout from the IMF.
