Surrounded by panelists who were affiliated to the NDC, Solomon Owusu tried to rebut their arguments on the economic crises in the country to John Mahama\u2019s incompetency when he was in charge as President.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/6cb07b942786424b9cbfc7645bf668ea\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Solomon bemoaned that the NDC keep on complaining and yet provide no solutions. He cited an example with John Mahama. John Mahama got the chance to speak to Hayde Adams, host of VOA\u2019s Straight Talk Africa earlier this month. The issues centered on his political career, trade and the economic crises in Ghana. According to John Mahama, Ghana\u2019s problems has to do with over borrowing and over spending on the part of the government.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/eaf38e116e53412d92596adfa108ba8a\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Solomon Owusu however insisted that Mahama\u2019s response on the economy was most deserving of a leader. He noted that this is the saddest interview he has seen of the former president and called on the NDC to learn to praise the government when it is needed instead of damaging the reputation of the country. The ruling NPP communicators have insisted that the financial challenges of the country are due to exogenous factors and not theirs. They have even gone a step forward to also blame the erstwhile John Mahama government for mismanaging the country.<\/p>\n<p>Content created and supplied by: Still_Unbeatable (via  Opera<br \/>\nNews )<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p class=\"copyright hide\">\n<span class=\"content\">    ,  .   ,     .
