According to Ashanti Regional Minister Simon Osei Mensah, Ghana’s current economic difficulties are not the fault of the ruling New Patriotic Party.
He argues that his party and the government are actually the victims of a worldwide economic crisis and cannot be held responsible for the current situation of the economy because he gets upset when people make such accusations.
“NPP we have done well, there is hardship but we have managed it well. Even the richest countries, don’t they also suffer? Why are we creating the impression that the NPP has performed badly? It tends to make me angry when I hear that,” he stated in an interview with Kumasi-based Hello FM.
The minister emphasized that, in spite of criticism, the NPP has performed admirably and deserves praise.
He continued by saying that people who are aware of world affairs respect his viewpoint and that the NPP should therefore educate the rest of Ghanaians about how happenings in the global economy affect their own country.
