The vice president, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has come under fire from National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer John Dramani Mahama once more for what he saw to be poor economic management in Ghana.
In response to Dr. Bawumia’s recent plea for presidential election, Mahama asserted that Ghanaians would give the doctor a failing grade for his economic management, pointing to his accomplishments as vice president.
As part of the second leg of his regional campaign in Greater Accra, Mahama called on the government to take ownership of the country’s persistent economic problems during a community engagement in Amanfrom.
“Recently, I heard the flagbearer of the NPP, the vice president, saying that he has performed excellently as vice president so they should promote him to president. And I said, I don’t know who marked his script and whether he marked it himself, but I can tell him that when it comes to his performance, the mark that the people of Ghana will give him for management of the economy is F, fail.
“The mark that the people of Ghana will give him for management of the economy is F. F means fail. Because when it comes to the economy, they failed completely, absolutely. And they cannot escape blame for where they have landed us.” He stated.
