Akufo Addo Has The Guts To Contest Again Because Ghanaians Have Failed To Hold Him Accountable – Mahama’s Aide

An Aide to former President John Dramani Mahama, Godwin Edudzi Tamakloe has said that failure of the Ghanaian people to hold President Akufo Addo accountable for his past 4-years in office is the reason why he’s had confidence to contest for president again.

Speaking on Okay FM’s ‘Ade Akye Abia’ Morning Show, Mr Tamakloe insisted the Akufo Addo led government have had much resources at their disposal than any other government but have performed abysmally.

“I have never seen a government that has been so abysmal in its performance within 4 years than this administration with so much financial resources; over 300 billion Cedis financial resources at this government’s disposal and if you deduct the 6 billion spent on Free SHS from it, what has happened to the remaining money?” he quizzed.

Godwin Tamakloe further stated that the Akufo-Addo government alone has received about 315 billion Cedis and then Mills and Mahama administration both received financial resources of about 248 billion Cedis. He further cited the government’s 120 ministers and their exorbitant salaries which he is crippling the economy.

“Only your government has 120 ministers and deputies and do you know how much a minister is paid for a month? If they say leadership for service, it should have been leadership for family and friends,” he said.

To him, President Akufo-Addo has not been able to keep his campaign promise of not forming a family and friends government.

“One of the campaign promises of Nana Akufo-Addo was that if Ghanaians vote for him, he will not form a family and friends government. Is Nana Addo still standing by that campaign promise?” he asked.
