The Akufo-Addo government has inherited a “very difficult” economy from the previous administration, Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia has said.
Speaking at a durbar of Zongo chiefs and Imams at Fadama in Accra organised by the Chief Imam to mark the birthday of Holy Prophet Mohammed, Dr Bawumia said despite the bad economy the New Patriotic Party has inherited, the Akufo-Addo-led government will deliver on all its promises.
“…We said that when by the grace of Allah we get into government, we will undertake a number of policies and by the grace of God we have gotten into government, we have looked at the economic situation, it is not an easy one, it is a very difficult one but by the grace of Allah we intend to keep all the promises that we made to the people of Ghana.
“You have already seen that we mean business; we are going to deal with the economic challenges, after all, that is what we were elected to do,” Dr Bawumia said.
As part of those promises, Dr Bawumia said the government will established the Zongo Development Fund in the first quarter of the year. “We will establish the Zongo Development Fund in our very first budget in March of this year. It is very important for people of the zongos and Muslims at large who live in the zongos. … We will establish it and work in consultation with our chiefs, our imams, our opinion leaders to make sure the fund is delivers on the needs of the people of the zongos.”

To be honest this man talk too much. U have started giving excuses right? U had several lectures and promised Ghanaians that is the bad economy that's why u are coming and u were using it to campaign. If the said economy is good then why canvas for votes. Pls start distributing your one constituency one million dollars ooo. U thought is easy to rule .
Go and give a lecture on the bad economy. You can't hoodwink Ghanaians and come and say the economy is bad. You said you are competent to fix a wet toilet paper, so stop the complains and fix it.
Pls fix it for us wai
