Kwesi Pratt has called on Ghanaians to give the current administration under the leadership of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo time to deliver on their promises.

Mr. Pratt, contributing to Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo', believed it's too early for Nana Addo and his government to be assessed.

To him, Nana Addo deserves some breathing space to function and should not be unnecessarily tackled by opposition.

Speaking on 'Kokrokoo', Mr. Pratt, however, expressed concerns over the number of Ministerial appointees under President Nana Akufo-Addo's regime.

According to him, the number under the current administration is huge and may run Ghana into financial losses.

He believed the country will incur cost in maintaining the 36 Minister-designates.

He also hoped President Akufo-Addo would fulfil his promises to Ghanaians, alluding to the "President's 1-factory, 1-district" campaign promises and the need to reduce petroleum prices among others.

Mr. Pratt wished the government well in their endeavour to improve the country.
