President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has criticized the “24-hour economy” policy proposed by National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer John Dramani Mahama, calling it vague and lacking substance.
Speaking to religious and traditional leaders, as well as New Patriotic Party (NPP) supporters in the Tema West constituency during his campaign tour of the Greater Accra Region, Akufo-Addo argued that Mahama offers no fresh solutions to Ghana’s challenges and urged voters to reject him in the December 7 presidential election.
The President endorsed Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as the most qualified candidate to lead Ghana into the future, praising the NPP’s record of innovative policies. He emphasized that continuity under Bawumia would ensure sustained development and progress for the country.
“What is he [John Dramani Mahama] coming to do? 24-hour economy. You couldn’t keep the lights on in the four years in which you were in power for 12 hours a day.
“How are you going to run a 24-hour economy when 12 hours a day, you couldn’t keep the lights on? You couldn’t pay the teacher training allowance. You couldn’t pay nurses training allowance.”
