Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has come under fire once again from the Minority Leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, for the current economic turmoil.<\/b><\/p>\n

Despite Dr. Bawumia\u2019s reputed expertise, Dr. Forson criticised his failure to meet expectations since assuming office alongside President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.<\/p>\n

Dr. Forson, who also represents Ajumako-Enyan-Essiam in Parliament, lambasted Dr. Bawumia\u2019s performance as abysmal, calling for accountability from Ghanaian voters in the upcoming elections.<\/p>\n

During his contribution to the 2024 State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Monday, March 11, Dr. Ato Forson accused Dr. Bawumia of squandering the fiscal space inherited from the previous John Mahama government.<\/p>\n

He condemned the Akufo-Addo administration\u2019s management of the country, alleging that it has resulted in significant hardships for Ghanaians.<\/p>\n

\u201cMr Speaker, those who held various lectures on textbook management of the economy have been in charge of Ghana\u2019s economy for the last seven years.<\/p>\n

\u201cDespite \u2018resolving\u2019 all issues of the economy at those lectures, the reality is that the economy has collapsed on the watch of Dr. Bawumia, the chief lecturer,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
