You should've apologised, submitted your solutions to your 'failed' gov't — PPP National Chairman to Bawumia

Nana Ofori Owusu, the National Chairman of the Progressive People's Party (PPP), has called on Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to issue an apology to Ghanaians for what he perceives as the shortcomings of the Akufo-Addo administration.

Nana Ofori Owusu emphasised that the Vice President should also bear the brunt of the alleged governance failures, urging him to take responsibility just as President Akufo-Addo is facing criticism for the overall performance of the government.

During an assessment of Dr. Bawumia's promises and actions on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo" morning show, Nana Ofori questioned the Vice President's intentions and criticised him for distancing himself from certain unpopular policies implemented under the government.

Specifically, Nana Ofori Owusu pointed to Dr. Bawumia's earlier commitment to eliminate the controversial Electronic Transaction Levy (E-Levy) and expressed disappointment that the Vice President was involved in the passage and implementation of the levy.

"As a leader, if things are not going well, you must stand up and be accounted for.

“We must hear your voice. We must know that this is how you hold the fort and have the necessary influence to change the course of these things that you are aware are not good," remarked Nana Ofori Owusu.

He continued, "It's better to accept and apologise. I expected that, in the beginning of the speech, he would have apologised for some of the things that have not gone well [sic] and then he goes on to lay his platforms and then he will take corrective measures on many of those things."

Nana Ofori Owusu conveyed these sentiments during his appearance on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo" morning show.
