In their inexorable determination to dent the huge stature and credibility of the Vice President of the Republic, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the opposition National Democratic Congress has twisted and misrepresented a statement the Vice President made concerning government’s decision to begin the construction of dams in line with Government’s One Village One Dam policy.
Though the administration indicated in the 2018 budget that 100 of such dams would be taken care of, the Veep in his statement over the policy at the annual Paari Gbiele Festival of the people of Sissala, said it is government’s expectation to work hard to increase the number.
Truly, if government budgeted for 100 but wants to work hard to increase the number shouldn’t that be a good news? This has plunged the NDC into their propaganda-filled world, inducing some stalwarts to ignore common sense, and behave like their footsoldiers who get wind of an issue and run into town with it.
Led by the discredited Member of Parliament for Bolga Central, Isaac Adongo, the NDC is asking where the funds for the additional dams will come from since they’re not captured in the 2018 budgetary statement. Adongo claims that the government cannot spend beyond what the appropriations act say. He went on to describe the Vice President with dictions and expressions which are distasteful much as they’re unsavoury.
Adongo’s loutish behaviour has blindfolded him so much to the extent that common sense has eluded him. With his experience, one would have expected that he would know that this can be done in two ways;
Either go back to Parliament to ask for additional funds or an entity could come to our aid without adding a flicker of debt to our debt stock.
Is it not the case that the government can go back to Parliament to ask for additional funds to be utilized on the additional dams to be constructed, if it so desires?
Is it something extraordinary or out of order to have a body or groups within or outside the country agreeing to help us with some funds with the sole intent to build these additional dams?
Instead of asking these critical questions, Adongo would allow his intelligence to betray him by hastily jumping into conclusions.
Clearly, the decision to slight Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia was the motivation behind these cacophonous yet uncoordinated submissions on what the Vice President alluded to at the festival.
Vice President Bawumia has been a thorn in the flesh of the NDC for the past number of years since he came into the political limelight. His intellectual acumen, coupled with his ability to practicalise economic theories to soothe the painful but messy economy the NDC left behind are responsible for this level of hatred for him.
The NDC lacks the men and women with the clout that defines Dr. Bawumia. The Vice President towers above any other person in the NDC in terms of intelligence, especially in the field of economic management, and this is the main causative factor propelling the opposition members to make a mountain out of a mere molehill.
It doesn’t hurt for Adongo and his cohorts to expend a bit of their time fine-tuning on the little knowledge they’ve acquired in the field of Economics.

Adongo is pinching hard on the substandard vice president. Thanks for the attention
Yaw the most stup*d of the idi*ts in the ndc. If you have a party that majority are fo*ls the result is mismanagement and thi*ving. Adongo akpakye man, too ontua ka, go and settle your debts with GN bank, disgraceful people with no shame. ***barred word*** biaa sore a na okasa tia nipa! Show me who in the ndc is normal? Kwas*a yaw! When Adongo eats a mad dog head, he then descend fo*lishly on patriotic Ghanaians! Ndc will rot in opposition. I tell you, it will be easier for a camel to enter the eye of a needle than these thi*ves coming back to power. Your 4 regions can never bring you to power and the 6 regions and those discerning Ghanaians are not ready today or tomorrow to hand over their party to thi*ves and incompetent gang of kriminals I'm political suit. Adongo Dr Bawumiah is not your co-equal in anyway, after all his father has served this country before and is known and who is your father and On what capacity did he serve this country to make you so arrogant like that? You are very annoying to most Ghanaians with your arrogance and I know the next election your constituents will show you the exit, you are not helping them and of no use to Ghana except noise making and jealous of others who are great. Dr Bawumiah had his PhD abroad before he became the deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana, but you became an mp before becoming a student to write your masters which Dr Bawumiah could have taught you even at home, kwas*a! He is equal or even better than whoever taught you. ***barred word***, find your size for politics doesn't give you the chance to lord yourself over Ghanaians st*pid fo*l. You have only a small constituency in Ghana and Ghana is not your constituency to talk anyhow to us. Ofuii! Be polite and courteous, if you don't have manners you can learn. These Northerners are destroying ndc with their st*pidity of arrogance. Ndc is not attractive because of their utterances.
Hahahaha, illiteracy is killing these NDC half bake so call economies who finds it difficult to understand the achievements of the NPP in just a little over a year. By the way have ISAAC ADONGO settle his indebtedness to the GN Bank? Let me make it clear to you that this same MP could not even manage his small Beer distribution company in Bolga
Adongo dwarfs ALL the brains in the NPP!! He is easily and readily understood. He does no voodoo economics and does not contrive his facts and figures to make sense. STOP hiding your ignorance and illiteracy in insults and name calling!!! The ADONGOMANIA is touching every sane Ghanaian who cares to listen!!
Bawulair should first think of completing the 100 dams as approved in the budget before dreaming of more dams
