The Director of Research at the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA), Dr John Kwakye, has told Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and Former President John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearers of the NPP and NDC respectively, to announce what differently they would do to turn around the fortunes of the economy.
He said the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) owe Ghanaians an apology for the current state of the country’s economy.
In his view, both parties have contributed to the current ‘sordid state’ of the economy.
“NPP and NDC must apologize to Ghanaians for bringing the country, once the shining star of Africa, to its current sordid state. Their presidential candidates should tell us what they are going to do differently to turn the economy around. Otherwise, they don’t deserve our mandate.
“NPP and NDC presidential candidates must first admit their party failures in the past 32 years and tell Ghanaians what they are going to do differently to turn this country around. Otherwise, they should be rejected by the electorate,” he wrote on his X platform.
He added “NPP and NDC have woefully failed Ghana over the past 32 years. Their presidential candidates should openly admit the NPP and NDC failings and tell us what they are going to do differently. Otherwise, the electorate should reject them.”
