Bawumia has a penchant for engaging in ‘rush–talk’ – Edudzi Tameklo

A member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Communications Team, Godwin Edudzi Tameklo has described Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia as someone who enjoys engaging in “rush–talk.”

He said this attribute of the Vice President has exposed his lack of understanding as regards how public policies work.

In his words, “You know, our Vice President has this penchant for engaging in rush-talk.

This rush-talk, with the benefit of time, has rather exposed the fact that our Vice President is really not thorough when it comes to policy issues.”

Explaining his assertion, Mr Tameklo said that Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia led the government in striking a $2 billion deal titled Master Project Support Agreement (MPSA) with a hydropower engineering and construction firm, a Chinese state–run firm, Sinohydro Corporation Limited in September 2018.

Mr Tameklo said although the Minority warned Dr Bawumia that the deal was going to incur debts, he indicated that members of the opposition party do not read.

Mr Tameklo said on JoyNews’ Newsfile on Saturday that, true to their suspicion, the deal has added to the country’s debt.
