Mr John Dramani Mahama, Flag bearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), says Ghana’s current economic challenges are self-inflicted by the ruling New Patriotic Party.
According to him, when the NPP government took over power in 2017, it borrowed over 13 Billion Dollars within seven years with no work to show for it.
He said the amount could put asphalt overlay on the main highway from Tamale to Paga.
Mr Mahama said these when he interacted with members of the Upper East Regional House of Chiefs in Bolgatanga.
He said the borrowing attitude of the NPP government had brought untold hardship on Ghanaians adding that the high taxes imposed on the Ghanaian tax payer made life unbearable.
He therefore disclosed plans by an NDC administration to revamp the cotton industry in the North to make it more attractive and create employment opportunities for the youth.
