Do not judge the new Central Bank Governor at the begining of his appointnent. Congratulate him now and judge him instead at the end of his tenure. Before you judge him at the end though, try to understand what are the GOSL fiscal and monetary policies /objectives during the period of his tenure. That is how objectivity works.

I hope he will do better this time because the man has been in that office working with the former Bank governor and the economy still continued to depreciate. Congratulation to you sir, as a senior financial economist, we hope you will display your wealth of knowledge to boost our economy.

Ici on n'a pas besoins des grandes personnages mais on n'a besoin le système et le système doit changer

We have had personalities with big credentials, but the systems do not seem to be working for the common man. Why can't we find a workable solution to our problem as a nation, Mr president?
