NDC has the men and women to manage the economy very well – Mahama

Former President John Dramani Mahama has said the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has the men and women to manage the economy very well.

He said the NDC will ensure that they make life better for all Ghanaians if they come to power.

The flagbearer of the NDC said these during an address to students at the Sefwi Wiaso Nurses Training College.

He attributed the current surge in fuel and food prices to what he described as the mismanagement of the economy by the Akufo-Addo administration.

“I met some drivers, and they apologized to me for voting me out. A gallon of petrol during my time was GH¢14, but now it’s above … or more; I can’t even tell. All these things are a result of the mismanaged economy.

“We buy fuel with dollars, so if the economy is not managed well and the dollar-to-cedi rate is lower, the prices of goods and services will decrease, but because the economy has been mismanaged, petrol is expensive. The NDC has the men and women to manage the economy very well. When we come back to power, we will ensure we make life better for you people,” he stated.
