Ken Ofori-Atta, Ghana's Finance Minister is in the United States of America, USA, attending the Group of Seven (G7) meeting with Finance Ministers from some African countries which is part of the IMF and World Bank Annual meetings. Ofori-Atta described the meeting as "quite historic because for the first time, the G7 has called African Finance Ministers to deliberate on the crisis that they see. In some of the photos circulating on social media, Ofori-Atta is seen sitting next to Kwarteng and having a tête-à-tête. Kwasi Kwarteng's appointment made him the first Black to ascend to such a position regarded as only second to the Prime Minister’s office in UK political circles. This group invited finance ministers from South Africa, Senegal, Togo, Zambia, Ghana, Guinea, Rwanda, Chad, Tunisia and Morocco for the all-important meeting.
