Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, Member of Parliament for Ofoase Ayirebi, has cast doubt on President John Dramani Mahama's economic promises, urging Ghanaians to be cautious in their expectations.
He argued that the president's track record with the power crisis, popularly known as dumsor, is a clear indication that his economic pledges may not materialize as expected. "Every Ghanaian knows that in 2016, there was dumsor despite the fact that he said in January 2016 that he would fix dumsor, there was still dumsor. "If President Mahama today tells us that just like he fixed dumsor, he would fix the economy, when every Ghanaian knows that in 2016 there was dumsor, then every Ghanaian can extrapolate that all the promises that you have just outlined; the promises of July 2024 which he repeated today as something he will live by then it suggests to us that we are in for a very difficult time," he said during an interview on Eyewitness News on Citi FM.
His comments come in response to President Mahama's State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Thursday, February 27, 2025, where the president assured the nation of his commitment to restoring economic stability and fostering national growth.
