Madam Cecilia Asaga, a Zongo Caucus patron of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Greater Accra region is asking the wife of Vice President Samira Bawumia to stop worsening matters with her annoying propaganda comments.
The Second Lady has come under intense criticism after she reportedly said President Akufo-Addo has touched every constituency with development.
Her comments angered Madam Asaga who said Ghanaians are going through tough times under the leadership of Akufo-Addo-Bawumia led NPP Government due to bad economic management.
She noted that Samira Bawumia must contend with the reality on the ground and call out his ‘missing’ husband, Vice President Bawumia to clean the economic mess.
According to her, Ghanaians are suffering from intolerable hardships and an ever-increasing cost of living, which is quite unfortunate.
In addition, an increase in existing taxes, as well as the introduction of new ones, has resulted in dramatic increases in the prices of petrol, food, and other essentials.
“On this day, as hardships deepen, I implore His Excellency President Nana Akufo-Addo to extend a hand of collaboration to all Ghanaians who can help save our beloved country from the abyss into which it is sinking,” she stated in an interview with Avenor TV.
She continued, “I salute Ghanaians in need, and I would want to take this occasion to ask Madam Samira Bawumia to assist her husband in taking the necessary steps to provide aid in fixing the Ghanaian porous economy than insulting and attacking Ghanaians complaining about the bad nature of the economy.
“Although it appears that Vice-President Mahamudu Bawumia’s lies have decreased marginally because of his hidden stature due to the implementation of the obnoxious E-levy, it is conceivable that his wife, Samira, has acquired the same ailment.
“One cannot imagine under what influence should Samaira Bawumia be to declare that the Akufo-Addo-Bawumia administration’s accomplishments are strewn around the country.
“Indeed, I do not receive or share the poor taxpayers’ money to go throughout the country as she claims, but I am confident that those with good eyesight can only see agony, hardship, frustration, crime, corruption, starvation, unemployment, and so on all over the country.”
