National Women’s Organizer of the ruling New Patriotic Party, Kate Gyamfuah is questioning former President John Mahama to explain to Ghanaians what he left at the Jubilee House in his four years tenure as a President.

Kate Gyamfuah who was addressing traders at Atonsu Market in the Ashanti Region as part of 2nd Lady’s tour in the region, said Nana Addo’s government has implemented policies which will help change fortunes of Ghana for which reason Mahama deserves no attention. “What has he left at the Jubilee house that he wants to go back and take?” she asked, as the market women applauded.

According to her, governance is not construction of roads but governance is the implementation of strategic policies to improve the lives of all Ghanaians such as Free Senior High School, Planting for Food and Jobs, NaBco and host of others.

“President Akufo-Addo as a visionary leader will continue to implement good to make Ghanaians enjoy a better life, No government will pound fufu and serve Ghanaians every day and night. Ghana is hard for those who are lazy. Ghanaians should stop complaining and support the government to deliver.President Akufo-Addo will deliver and make Ghanaians proud” she said.
