Dzifa Gomashie is the best fit for Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts – George Quaye

Events consultant cum media personality, George Quaye is of the view that Ablah Dzifa Gomashie is better placed to perform excellently at the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts.

He believes that the National Democratic Congress’ government has no time to waste in this second term of John Dramani Mahama and therefore does not have the time to waste.

George Quaye, who was speaking on Accra-based United Showbiz, indicated that John Mahama is leveraging experience in the selection of ministers and therefore does not have time to try new people at this time.

“If there is any government that doesn’t have time, it is this government. This is not the time to try people. So if you look at the trend, the man is using a lot of wisdom to select people. The man is looking at experience.

"This is an industry that says it wants one of us and we have one of us in there already who, beyond everything else, has the experience. She does not have only experience in arts but also in tourism,” he said on Accra-based United Television.

He further added, "Her experience makes her the best fit for handling the ministry. Mahama cannot follow the sentiments of the people in the industry; then you’ll choose people they want. But for a party that does not have time, you need someone who has been there before, who has learnt from their experience, so that they are supported by the people who are around."
