Asiedu Nketia, General Secretary of NDC

Bawumia suffering from political hangover – Asiedu Nketia jabs
General Secretary of the opposition National
Democratic Congress (NDC) Johnson Asiedu Nketia
has described Vice President Mahamadu Bawumia as
suffering from a “political hangover”.

In his view, the Vice President is behaving as if
the New Patriotic Party (NPP) is still in
opposition.

General Mosquito as he is popularly called made
the comment while reacting to Dr. Bawumia's claim
that the previous government concealed GH¢ 7
billion in debt from the Transition team.

He wondered why the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 fiscal
years data provided to the NPP transition team
members did not include the debt racked up by the
NDC government.

But Asiedu Nketia maintained that, the allegations
are nothing but cheap propaganda against the
erstwhile Mahama-led administration.

He explained that, the GH¢7 billion purported to
have been unaccounted for by the previous
government has been captured in documents of the
Controller and Accountant General’s Department.

This conduct of Dr. Bawumia, the NDC scribe said,
is enough attestation that he is exhibiting signs
of political hangover.

“There is something called campaign hangover. It
has affected Bawumia very much. Campaign hangover
can lure one to forget he has won whiles in power,
especially in the first year. It can even urge you
to go on demonstrations if care isn’t taken. But
against who?...” he jabbed during an interview
with UTV.

General Mosquito stated that the "falsehood" being
peddled by the Vice President is part of a grand
scheme to justify to Ghanaians why the NPP cannot
fulfill their “juicy” campaign promises during
the 2016 electioneering campaign.

“NPP decided to lie to Ghanaians to win votes.
After winning power, they are looking for lies to
tell the people as to why they cannot work…”
he said.

Asiedu Nketia maintained that the NPP’s
propaganda about the economy is now coming back to
haunt them.
