HARDSHIP IN GHANA DUE TO CORRUPTION-NANA AKUFFO ADDO

The flagbearer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has blamed the poverty and hardship in Ghana to the corruption of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC).

Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo says rather than bolstering the deteriorating Ghanaian economy, the Mahama-led government is interested in countering his many ideas for transforming the country.

“Poverty, hardship, and the absence of unemployment have become the order of the day. This is due to corruption and the poor state of the Ghanaian economy,” he said in Twi.

The NPP leader disclosed this to scores of residents of the Weija-Gbawe Constituency in Accra during his campaign tour ahead of the November polls.
Akufo-Addo accused President Mahama and the NDC of doubting his policy and vision for Ghana.

“In 2000 When Kufuor promised the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), Atta Mills said it is not possible but did it not work?” he asked the residents.

However, when I promised the free SHS, he said, “Mahama said it is not possible and that he will do that gradually. Did he do it?”

“I am coming to do that,” he said, and went on to entreat the electorates to ignore claims made by the NDC over his many transformative policies.
