Edmund Kyei, Asokwa Constituency 1st Vice Chairman and NPP National Communication Member, has dared ex-President Mahama to show policies he put in place to improve the lives of Ghanaians during his 8 years tenure as president.

According to Mr. Kyei former president Mahama has no locus to critique President Akufo-Addo who in his estimation has achieved far more than he did within his 8 years in power.

“Currently I can boldly say NABCO has come to resolve challenges of the famous Graduate Unemployment Association, growth rate from 3.6 to 8.2 in two years which is the lowest in past 23 years; Fight against illegal mining has been successful; restoration of nurses and teacher training allowances has eased the burden on trainees; commencement of one District one Factory is on point, GDP has increased from 167 billion to 206 billion, reduction of electricity bill has eased the financial burden on citizens and the famous Free SHS has drastically reduced street-ism.

“I am challenging former President Mahama to bring out his policies than attacking already established policies,” a statement by the Asokwa Constituency 1st Vice Chairman said in part.

YOU HAD A WHOLE 8 YEARS AS PRESIDENT AND AS VICE BUT YOU COULDN’T DELIVER, WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH MERE 4 YEARS?-EDMUND KYEI QUIZZES THE EX PRESIDENT?

Ghana has come a long way, as we look back from where His Excellency The President of the Republic Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo picked up the pieces from. About three to four years ago Ghana was in a very serious economic crisis, IMF was dictating our economical pace and the worse of it was that inflation was high but through the timely intervention of our current economic management team headed by His Excellency Dr. Bawumia we have been able to regain our economic freedom and now we having a single digit inflation, currently 7.8%.

This government has achieved a lot at a shorter period as compared to the previous administration.

Currently I can boldly say NABCO has come to resolve challenges of the famous Graduate Unemployment Association, growth rate from 3.6 to 8.2 in two years which is the lowest in past 23 years; Fight against illegal mining has been successful; restoration of nurses and teacher training allowances has eased the burden on trainees; commencement of one District one Factory is on point, GDP has increased from 167 billion to 206 billion, reduction of electricity bill has eased the financial burden on citizens and the famous Free SHS has drastically reduced street-ism.

I am challenging former President Mahama to bring out his policies than attacking already established policies.

Ghanaians have not forgotten about DUMSOR, we thank God The President of the Republic Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo have solved the worrying power crisis. I want ex President Mahama to bring out his policies on Free SHS than attacking the policy.

It’s beyond imagination how the ex President want to come back to mess the economy again after President Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo gradually solving the problems.

After 8 long years of messing the economy he wants to come back, if Mahama could not transform Ghana with his 8 years mandate as President and vice President, what exactly can he do with 4 years? . Can I call it greed or NDC lack men to lead?
