What have you done with all the monies you’ve borrowed? – Mahama to Akufo-Addo

The flagbearer of opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama, is has raised questions over the use of monies borrowed by the Akufo-Addo government in fostering the Ghana’s development.

According to the former president, the Akufo-Addo government has borrowed so much money and yet has nothing to show for it.

Addressing the Chiefs and people of Sogakpe in the South Tongu constituency as part of his four-day tour of the Volta Region, Mr Mahama suggested that the NPP government has few projects to show for the huge amounts they have borrowed.

“In four years, the Akufo-Addo government has borrowed more than ¢140 billion, so the simple question Ghanaians should ask is, what have you done with the money? Where are the schools, the roads, electricity, water, the hospitals, and harbours?”, Mr Mahama queried.

He said, his administration borrowed a little over ¢54 billion and showed for it by constructing roads,  building schools, healthcare infrastructure, harbours and airports, among others other developmental projects.

The NDC flagbearer said, when voted into power, his government will continue with infrastructural development, by completing the remainder of the 200 Community Day Senior High Schools to eliminate the double-track system in secondary education so that students can be in school at the same time and have extended contact period with their teachers.

Mr Mahama also mentioned his BIG PUSH agenda that will ensure massive investment in infrastructure development across sectors of the economy when he wins the 2020 presidential election.
