The Member of Parliament (MP) for the Bolgatanga Central Constituency of the Upper East Region has said Ghana’s economy has reached the edge where the country can no longer go onto the international market.
According to Mr. Isaac Adongo, Vice-President Mahamudu Bawumia, seems to have abandoned the “sinking economic management ship” and found solace in the “digitalization ship”.
He said: “The Vice-President has shifted gears into digitalization, leaving economic management on the shoulders of the incompetent Finance Minister,”.
“Since the Vice-President jumped ship, he has turned himself into a ‘Yahoo boy’ whose only concern is how to fidget with the internet in the name of digitalization,” he said.
“I’m surprised the president is still keeping Mr. Ken Ofori-Atta at post even in the wake of glaring evidence that the economy is not in good shape”, the opposition MP said.
“With the penchant for spending as a private person and a public officer, in other jurisdictions, Mr. Ken Ofori-Atta would not have come near the position of a deputy minister,” he argued.
“Bloomberg is just reiterating the concerns I’ve raised a year ago”, he noted, for which he said, “government communicators rained all manner of insults on my person as the MP for the people of Bolgatanga Central”.
Mr. Adongo said these on Accra100.5FM’s evening news bulleting in reaction to a recent Bloomberg article on how the economy has been run down.
