Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has been asked to respond to the 137 questions he submitted to his predecessor Paa Kwesi Bekoe Amissah-Arthur on Ghana’s economic management.
Godsbrain Captain Smart, the host of Onua FM’s breakfast show, is pressing Dr Bawumia for answers, believing that the answers will salvage the economy from its current plight.
Captain Smart demands that Dr. Bawumia, who he sees as an Economic Messiah, come out on the problems he addressed on those occasions in the run-up to the 2016 election.
Captain Smart sees the set of questions as a key to unlocking Ghana’s economic potential, and believes that the guy who devised them while in opposition should be able to put them into practice now that he is in power.
Captain Smart claimed that some of the data stated by Dr Bawumia were incorrect, citing portions of the questionnaire.
“They were referred to as questions, but they were statements to me.” I’d like him to come over right now and respond to them. The Vice President informed the entire country that we were only asking for GH33 million and that the country’s water problems would be solved. We are currently rationing water as I speak to you.
“Whoever demands equity must do so with clean hands.” We’d like him to respond to these questions on our behalf. He was complaining about the GDP under Mahama, and now he’s complaining about the GDP now. It is said that what goes around comes around. Mahama has had Ebola and is now suffering from COVID.
“The Kufuor government was rocked by the economic crisis, but he handled it well because he was smart. Why is the dollar gaining when oil is rising and the economy is supposedly growing? “The fundamentals are now stronger than sex workers’ beds,” he stated on his show, “but the exchange rate is still exposing them.”
In the run-up to the 2016 elections, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, then the Vice Presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party, sent certain questions to Amissah Arthur, which he dared her to answer.
Bawumia claimed on numerous media and campaign platforms that the questions highlighted the flaws of the Mahama government’s economic management and that Amissah-answers Arthur’s may help comprehend the economy’s apparent challenges.
“Is it true that this is Vice President Amissah Arthur’s hometown?” I’ve been on the lookout for him. He has 170 questions to answer and has been fleeing, so tell him I’ve arrived in his hometown and that he should answer the 170 questions. “There’s nowhere to hide anymore,” he explained.
