Don’t believe the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia When They Blame Russia-Ukraine War and Covid For Economic Mess.
Dr. Edward Omane Boamah, a former Minister of Communications for NDC has asked Ghanaians not to believe in Akufo-Addo/Bawumia when they blame Ghana’s economic woes on Covid 19 or Russia – Ukraine war.
In a post shared on his official Facebook page on Friday 21st October 2022, he wrote;
“Cry my beloved country! Fellow Ghanaians,
Let me be clear! Don’t believe the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government when they blame Russia-Ukraine war and COVID-19 for the economic mess and catastrophic financial meltdown Ghana is experiencing today.”
He added that Ghana is not the only country on the planet and in West Africa that has been affected by external factors. So why is Ghana failing so terribly?
According to Dr Omane Boamah, he even pointed out to government in February 2020, before Covid-19 hit Ghana, that they were running an unsustainable debt plan; but were deliberately deploying and parroting voodooo calculations to deceive themselves and gaslight Ghanaians that all was well. Similarly, on the show I warned government about the cedi-dollar exchange rate parity.
Dr Omane Boamah shared the video discussion. You may watch the video here.
“It was a healthy Tv discussion with one of my successors, Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, on Bernard Avle’s Talkshow.
The truth is, because of the incompetence of the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government:
Budgets of families and businesses have been disrupted;
Exchange rate is over the roof;
Ghana’s debt profile has become an international disgrace;
Fuel prices have shot up significantly;
Transportation fares have seen frequent increases;
Electricity and water bills have skyrocketed;
The retail aspect of the pharmaceutical industry value chain is collapsing; and Ghanaians are suffering and facing excruciating hardships in several spheres of our national life. ” He lamented
He added that Diabetics, Hypertensives and others with chronic health conditions are really struggling to pay for routine drugs. Baby food is going beyond the financial reach of many homes…
Yet, the sad and worrying bit is, the NPP government has no strategy to get us out of this mess they have created.
