‘Bawumia is a complete failure’ – Ofosu-Ampofo

The flagbearer of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia, is a complete failure, former National Chairman of the main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has said.
In a recent interview, Mr Ofosu-Ampofo said he sees a different person in Dr Bawumia from whom he portrayed himself before becoming the flagbearer of the governing party.
“… I keep on asking myself: Is Bawumia who he claims to be who he is? Because, when he speaks on the campaign platform now, I ask whether he’s Alan Kyerematen because he speaks as if [he is] Alan, who has left the NPP and is trying to come out with new ideas.”
Mr Ofosu-Ampofo wondered why an incumbent Vice President would be making certain statements that sought to dissociate himself from the current government, noting that Dr Bawumia seemed to have “forgotten about his role as the chairman of the Economic Management Team.”
Concerning Dr Bawumia’s recent call for a reintroduction off road tolls, Mr Ofosu-Ampofo said: “As the Vice President, it is your government. You are an integral part and the number two most important person.”
“When he was appointed, the president indicated he was bringing Dr Bawumia because of his economic prowess and credentials to come and salvage the economy. So, completely he’s a failure, he’s a failure,” Mr Ofosu-Ampofo asserted.
He urged Ghanaians to change the current government at the next polls.
“Ghanaians should look at what has happened in South Africa over their election and make their decision, which will chart a new path for the future of this country.”
“I believe that the NPP, under President Akufo-Addo and Bawumia, has taken this country for granted. And the silence of the voices we used to hear when NDC was in power is very surprising. But I believe that the ordinary Ghanaian will rise to the occasion and show that there’s a change of government,” he told ChannelOne TV.
