In an interview shared by the X page @Deck360Ghana, Dr Ofori Atta described the situation as "very bad and unprecedented," highlighting how difficult life has become for many Ghanaians.
He was unsparing in his criticism, not only of President Akufo-Addo but also of Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, who had been promoted by the NPP as an "economic wizkid" and a "messiah" capable of solving the nation's financial challenges.
Dr Ofori Atta, however, expressed disappointment in Bawumia's performance, stating that the Vice President has been a complete failure in addressing the country's economic woes.
Dr Ofori Atta made these remarks while wearing a T-shirt branded with Alan Kyerematen's name, suggesting that he may support the opposition figure, who resigned as the Minister of Trade and Industry in the NPP government.
