NDC bigwig, Sylvester Mensah
After the Vice President of the Republic, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia on Monday said his government has shown better leadership skills in managing the economy as well as alleviating the plight of Ghanaians against the coronavirus crisis, several people, from politicians to ordinary Ghanaians have tongue-lashed him for making such a statement.
The latest to join in the wade is an NDC bigwig, Sylvester Mensah stating that Dr Bawumia’s comments were to score cheap political points for the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Taking to his Facebook page on May 5, 2020, he said, “Bawumia by his misguided references to the Coronavirus pandemic has exposed his abysmally poor judgement in shamelessly capitalising on this global tragedy of such catastrophic proportions for cheap political points scoring”.
The NDC bigwig added that the NPP government is insensitive to play politics with the coronavirus when frontline health workers are risking their lives to help contain the virus as well as scientists racing to find alternative treatment protocols or antidotes to fight the disease.
He bemoaned that, “this is deeply disturbing, particularly for a Vice President whose poor judgement is going to feed into key government decisions that affect millions of lives. Dr Bawumia has remained in a perpetual campaign mode even after December 2016 with his porous and hollow arguments for the electorate to entrust him and his boss with levers of decision making again”.
