The Head of the NDC’s legal team, Lawyer Edudzi Tamakloe, has warned Ghanaians not to listen to Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the vice president and flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), since he thinks the latter is a bad economist who will push the country to its financial breaking point.
According to him, Dr. Bawumia was been described as an economic wizard who is adept at managing the economy and would address Ghana’s economic difficulties but turned out to be the worst.
Speaking in an interview with Kwamina Sam Biney on Bryt Fm’s Adekye Mu Nsem in Thursday, Lawyer Tamakloe made these assertions in Bawumias’s response to Mahama in answering five questions.
“How can a master of economics be fleeing the economy at this time? President Akufo-Addo said he chose Dr. Bawumia due of his economic prowess, now notice awful our economy has become. John Mahama’s debate with someone who deceived Ghanaians will be a farce. Since Mahama is a nobleman, he will not argue with a liar. It is currently GHS 17 to the dollar.”
“By claiming that he came as a mate and now wants to be the bus’s principal driver, Dr. Bawumia is attempting to distance himself from the mess he made while serving as vice president and head of the Economic Management Team. Isn’t he the same individual who gave talks at Central University about how effectively he would run the economy once NPP took office in 2016? Given that the economy is being questioned, why is he running now? Ghanaians should not listen to Bawumia because he is a poor economist..”
Mr. Tamakloe believes that Dr. Bawumia doesn’t want to take the blame for his mess and for that reason hiding behind President Akufo-Addo for protection.
” If Ghanaians give Bawumia to nod to lead the country, it will be a disaster. How can someone who couldn’t manage the economy lead a country like Ghana. He couldn’t even answer questions which journalists posed at him. He isn’t the ideal man for this country. We need to give the country to an experienced leader who knows how to manage the economy better” he stated.
