Minority Leader of Ghana’s Parliament, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, has accused the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government of engaging in reckless and excessive borrowing, taking Ghana’s debt stock from GHS120 billion in 2016 to a staggering GHS761 billion, in just under eight years, with very little or nothing to show for the loans.
According to him, the act by government, is “an act of wickedness that must be punished by the electorate”.
Speaking at a forum of teachers, traders, artisans and Christian and Muslim leaders at Mankessim in the Mfantseman constituency as part of his campaign tour of the Central region, Dr. Ato Forson blamed government for destroying Ghana and running the country’s economy aground thereby inflicting hardship on Ghanaians.
He has therefore urged them, to vote out the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government and send a clear message to all politicians that the electorate cannot be taken for granted.
He said the upcoming election will determine the destiny of the country which is currently headed in the wrong direction.
