Speaking on Happy FM’s Epa Hoa Daben show, the former Member of Parliament (MP) for Akwatia Constituency said, “my only problem with the NPP is that their implementation is very bad, they can talk big, they will say things but they can’t implement it. Nana told us to give him only 18 months to change the fortune of the country”.

They brought manifesto prior to the 2016 general elections and promised Ghanaians the whole world. Is that what they are doing?
He revealed that, the reasons why the NDC did not challenge Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, when he asserted and scored the NPP 78% of its electoral promises. “They were all lies and the NDC doesn’t have time to challenge lies”.
