President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has come under fire from the National Chairperson of the National Democratic Party (NDC) for claiming to have recovered the “dead economy” that former President John Dramani Mahama left behind.
Johnson Asiedu Nketiah stated that Ghanaians have finally realized that the president has been lying to them and they will no longer believe anything he says at the NDC’s 2023 Real State of the Nation Address in Accra on Monday.
He continued by listing several alleged lies the president made to Ghanaians, such as his declaration that individual bondholders would not suffer bond haircuts under the government’s Domestic Debt Exchange Program (DDEP).
“ nothing the President says can be believed because everything he has said has proven untrue. Ghanaians have come to realise that: The claim by the President that he knew how to revive a dead economy was a scam;
“We are a proud nation; we are not going to the IMF” was a scam; There will be no haircuts” was a scam; The promise to build 88 district hospitals within one year was a scam; The promised elimination of road tolls, the Agenda 111 hospital project, and other schemes are all frauds.
“The claim that there was a global shortage of childhood vaccines was a scam. No state funds will finance the national cathedral was a scam designed to fleece the state by the likes of Rev. Victor Kusi Boateng/Kwabena Adu Gyamfi (whichever is applicable), David Adjaye, and Curry Summers,” he said. “The promise to convert toll booths into ultramodern public toilets was a scam.
