Pockets are dry, utility bills high – Mrs Rawlings

Leader of the 31st December Women’s Movement (DWM), Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings has said the Government will be doing itself a favour if it stops pretending everything is fine.

“I think we should just stop lying to ourselves and admit that there are some failures that have gone on within the system and then look at how we can address these failures.

“There’s no point in propagating issues that are not true or just making so much noise about it. Let’s have a cool head, relax, look at the issues as they are,” Mrs Rawlings said in an exclusive interview with TV3’s Nana Aba Anamoah aired on Christmas Day.

She said: “Apart from the pockets that are empty, there are issues that are making us suffer.”

“Electricity, water, just driving endlessly on the streets so your petrol, already petrol is very expensive,” the former first lady bemoaned.

“We have to start managing things,” she said; and lamented about the poor traffic situation in the country.
