Former aide to President Mahama Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has subtly mocked Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia over his silence on the current state of Ghana’s economy.
According to Mr. Kwakye Ofosu, Dr. Bawumia has gone into hiding after claiming he is the messiah to Ghana’s economy.
“He has completely disappeared from the economics team. He has gone into hiding, and he is avoiding discourse on the economy like the plague,” Mr. Ofosu said on Eyewitness News.
Mr. Ofosu believes Dr. Bawumia is well aware of the declining state of the economy and avoiding it.
“He doesn’t want to touch it with a long pole. He doesn’t want to take responsibility for the mess that he has supervised.”
Mr. Ofosu further questioned the lack of clarity from the government, which he said “has not been forthcoming with any plan.”
“If you say you don’t want to go to the IMF, what is the credible plan that you have to ensure that confidence returns to the economy and that we do not collapse?”He asked.
Mr. Ofosu also rubbished the government’s response to the recent rating agencies’ assessment of the economy.
