The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) John Dramani Mahama has criticised President Akufo-Addo for failing Ghanaians and refusing to accept responsibility for recklessly mismanaging the economy.
He accused the government of plunging the country into an “unprecedented” economic crisis, thereby pushing more than 800,000 Ghanaians below the poverty line.
Speaking at the 8th Ghana CEO Summit at the Kempinski Hotel in Accra, said, Ghana stand at a critical and troubling crossroads.
He stated that, our beloved country has become a bankrupt and collapsed economy due to the poor leadership of almost eight years.
He reiterated that, this leadership has failed Ghanaians and yet refuses to accept or even take responsibility for the most reckless management of our economy in known history.
He said this bad leadership has plunged the nation into an unprecedented economic crisis and pushed more than eight hundred thousand (800,000) Ghanaians below the poverty line.
He cited the unemployment rate which has jumped to 14.7% from 8.5% in 2017.
