Isaac Adongo, a member of parliament from Bolgatanga Central, says the incoming National Democratic Congress (NDC) administration will show Ghanaians the vision to create wealth rather than making absurd purchases that would drag the nation’s economy into a ditch.
He promised that the next NDC administration will reduce spending, which is mostly caused by an overly large government.
Mr. Adongo promised viewers during his appearance on Citi TV’s Point of View with Bernard Avle that, “what we will bring to government is a vision of creating wealth, creating infrastructure, and leveraging investment to grow the economy without necessarily putting them on the balance sheets of Ghana”.
He stressed, “in terms of managing the fiscals, we have an opportunity as a government to save Ghana from the rising expenditure levels that are occasioned by some of the bizarre things you see in government. John Mahama has told us that he will not run a large size government. You know the implications of running a small size-government that automatically translates into expenditure cuts”.
The outspoken senator emphasized that an NDC administration will not increase the costs incurred by the Akufo-Addo administration.
“We have an opportunity to start an expenditure from the scratch. We are not obliged to continue to add to the inefficient expenditures that the government has been incurring. If you look at the office of the President, you saw all the bizarre appointments, our national chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketiah talked about, that are consuming a lot of money” he stated.
