Ghanaian journalist, politician, and communications consultant, Fritz Baffour has argued that it is premature and unfair to assess the performance of President John Mahama within the first three months of his 4-year tenure.
Speaking on the Joy News AM show, Mr Baffour emphasised that the current state of governance cannot be accurately evaluated yet, pointing out that numerous key positions remain unfilled by the President's appointees, and the budget is to be approved. "It is very unfair for us to assess him in just three months, because we are still in the process of appointing all his appointees.
We have not yet established our MMDCEs, the budget has not been heard, and the impact has yet to be felt," Mr Baffour explained.
Mr Baffour also referred to a recent Joy Talk show featuring tax experts, where he quoted their remark: "Look, we can't feel the impact now." He echoed their sentiment, highlighting that it is too early to evaluate the full effects of the government's policies.
