Communications Director for the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah, has rejected claims that the economy of Ghana has been criminally handled.
President John Dramani Mahama, during his meeting with organized labour to discuss the base salary among others said although he knew that Ghana's economy was in distress, he has come to know that the economy was criminally handled by the previous government.
But reacting to the president's claims, Ahiagbah, who speaks for the opposition political party, acknowledged that Ghana faced some challenges.
However, the economy was never mismanaged as the current president wants the people of Ghana to believe. "We certainly endured some hard times, especially the difficult but necessary DDEP, owing to the difficulties we faced battling COVID-19 and its aftermath.
