Media personality Bridget Otoo has voiced her strong disapproval of NPP flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia\u2019s recent campaign promise to make smartphones more accessible to Ghanaians through a credit system.<\/p>\n
It could be recalled that Dr. Bawumia, speaking at a campaign event in the Savannah Region, pledged to make smartphones more accessible to Ghanaians if elected president.<\/p>\n
He outlined a plan to collaborate with phone manufacturers to provide smartphones on a credit basis, allowing citizens to pay as little as one or two cedis per month.<\/p>\n
His promise was met with mixed reactions on and off social media, including Bridget Otoo.<\/p>\n
In a tweet on July 23, 2024, Bridget Otoo pointed out the impracticality of the proposal, stating that it would take a long period of time for someone to pay back at such rates.<\/p>\n
\u201c4500 cedis means it would take 37 years to finish paying. Does it make sense to him?\u201d<\/p>\n
She further criticised the plan as disrespectful to voters, adding that it underestimates their intelligence.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is not even desperation but just disrespectful to think your voters are stupid,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
