President Akufo-Addo Nana Ohene Ntow, a special advisor to independent presidential aspirant, Alan Kyerematen, says he is surprised that President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo will find it necessary to ignite a debate on who founded Ghana at a time when the economy is struggling. He says it is very unfortunate that President Akufo-Addo is leading the country in this direction. "One of the sad moments for us is the preoccupation of the president to change Founder's Day to Founders' Day when we are grappling with such a terrible economic situation we have never seen before. "I am totally saddened that President Akufo-Addo will preoccupy himself with such petty. I am not saying the fact of history ought not to be taken into account, but at this time, is this one of the most important issues the president should preoccupy himself with? "It is very unfortunate that President Akufo-Addo will lead this country in this direction," the former General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) said on the Key Points on TV3 on Saturday August 10. A Former Senior Advisor at the United Nations, Professor Baffuor Agyeman-Duah also said there are pressing needs, especially in the economy that the people must channel their energies into addressing not a Founders' Day debate. He cautioned politicians against attempting to rewrite Ghana's history.
