The vice presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Prof.
Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, on Tuesday said there is no justification for President Akufo-Addo erecting his statue in Takoradi at a time that many Ghanaians are facing economic hardship.
She said Ghanaians are wallowing in abject poverty as prices of goods and services skyrocket on the watch of the Akufo Addo-Bawumia government, adding that women, in particular, bear the brunt of the present economic hardship.
The vice presidential candidate of the NDC said this when she paid a courtesy call on the Regent of Wungu, Sulemana Saka Adams, in the Walewale constituency to kickstart her twoday campaign tour of the North East Region.
