The New Patriotic Party (NPP), according to its general secretary Justin Kodua Frimpong, has an unmatched record of reviving Ghana’s economy.
He stressed that the NPP has shown to be a better economic manager than the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
While acknowledging the difficulties brought about by COVID-19 and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Mr. Kodua also emphasized the party’s achievements since taking government in January 2017.
He also praised President Akufo-Addo and former President Kufuor for their economic intelligence.
“When it comes to managing Ghana’s economy, our opponents do not have a comparable record. It is the case that today, the NDC feels emboldened because COVID-19 and the Russia-Ukraine War have vanquished the gains we made immediately upon taking over on 7th January 2017.”
“Under President John Agyekum Kufuor, from 7th January 2001 to 7th January 2009, the NPP pulled Ghana’s economy out of the stagnation the NDC left. Again, under President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, we grew the economy on average 7 percent from another NDC stagnation for three consecutive years before the disruptions of the Covid-19 pandemic and Russia’s War in Ukraine.”
“The truth is that we are fixing the economy, and soon, the hardships of today will be history. The assurance to Ghanaians that we will regenerate the economy is manifest in our record,” he said.
