Bawumia Said Nothing New On Ghana's Economy- CPP

The Convention People�s Party (CPP) says the NPP vice presidential candidate�s lecture on the state of the economy failed to offer ideas to transform Ghana�s economy. According to the party, Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia should have suggested ways Ghanaians could benefit from the nation�s mineral resources. The Communications Director of the CPP, Nii Armah Akomfrah in an interview with Citi News, said Dr. Bawumia said nothing new about the country�s economy. �We expected Dr. Bawumia to pass comments about transforming the current situation of our nation�s economy. Everything he said about the single-digit inflation in Ghana, are things we have hammered on consistently. If you see nothing wrong with 90% of our gold and other resources being handled externally, then we have a problem,� he told Citi News. He added that the NPP running mate only discredited statistics which the NPP had previously asked Ghanaians to trust.
