2020 Polls: Reject those with bad reports yet want Ghana back – Ofori-Atta shades Mahama

Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta has sent strong worded advice to electorates as Ghana goes to polls in barely a month to elect a President

“Mr. Speaker we must be careful as a nation to reject those who return from the Promised Land, with a bad report to subvert the spirit of our people and to reject leaders who would take us back to Egypt”, he said while presenting First Quarter of the 2021 budget on the floor of Parliament.

According to the Minister, the erstwhile National Democratic Congress (NDC) under former President John Mahama mismanaged the economy, however, they want to come back after it has been fixed by the Akufo-Addo led New Patriotic Party government.

“The economy is stronger today than it was 4 years ago, and will continue to grow stronger and stronger with 4 more years to do more for the people of Ghana, with God’s help.”

“Ironically, those who mismanage the economy for us to come and fix it are the one’s wishing Ghana ill. My message to them is this; there is no turning back. HIPC is behind us. Economic mismanagement is behind us”. He stressed

According to Hon. Ken Ofori Atta, the former President, John Mahama took an economy that was 64 billion dollars in 2013 but shrunk it down to 55 billion dollars before leaving office in 2016.

“These, Mr. Speaker, are the facts” adding “This means that after 4 years in office, the Mahama administration managed to achieve an unenviable record of reducing the Ghanaian Economy by nearly 10 Billion USD” He stressed.
