Nana Ayew Afriyie, the MP for Efiduase, has advised Kennedy Agyapong not to attack Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, when it comes to matters pertaining to Ghana’s readmission to the IMF.
The MP clarified that any inquiries about the IMF or the weak situation of the economy should be directed to Ken Ofori-Atta, the Finance Minister.
Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, he said, is a strategist because of his ability to rise above mundane things such as cleaning dorm rooms and driving cabs to become the man he is today.
“I will say that he should direct it to the Minister of Finance and when he (Bawumia) is in charge, he will take charge and take us to the promised land. We are going to the promised land. DMB is taking us there. He (Agyapong) Should attack the finance minister not him (Bawumia).
“He shared his experiences, when he used to clean to go to school to pay his fees; drive taxis, cabs. So, any person can be President one day. Any person’s child, regardless of where you are in this country, there is an opportunity for you to be where you have to be.”

“The years ahead of us, which are four, eight and sixteen, let us vote for the NPP. If we can continue as a government, then there is no other person than Bawumia. He understands education and socio-economic development. He will be a better President.”
