Cape Coast South Member of Parliament, Kweku George Ricketts-Hagan, has criticized Vice President and NPP flagbearer, Dr.

Mahamudu Bawumia, referring to him as a "theoretical economist" who has failed to live up to the expectations placed on him.

Speaking on GHOne TV's "State of Affairs", Ricketts-Hagan argued that Dr.

Bawumia was packaged as an economic savior, with his party, the New Patriotic Party (NPP), touting him as the solution to Ghana's economic woes.
