New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful Dr Bryan Acheampong has played down the achievements of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government led by John Dramani Mahama.

Speaking in a viral video clip from a recent interview, Dr Acheampong, who is also the Member of Parliament for Abetifi, asserted that the government is being praised for “artificial” measures put in place to restore the economy.

He added that when these measures stop working, which he said will be soon, Ghanaians will start asking the government tough questions.

“I’m saying that artificial intelligence can be used for a lot of things. Most of the applause and all the praise we are seeing are mainly generated by machines clapping.

“Very soon, Ghanaians will start asking questions. They will start asking questions,” he said.

The Abetifi legislator argued that the economic improvements the country is seeing are a result of the government injecting huge amounts of dollars into the economy from the Bank of Ghana.

He indicated that the supposed injection from the central bank will cease at a point, and it is then that the questions will start coming.

“They will say that we voted for you 12 months ago, and you used 10 billion dollars to hold the economy; what fundamentals are you putting in place for it (the economy) to stabilise?

“The money you inject into the economy from the Bank of Ghana is one thing, but what you have to do for the economy to stabilise is another thing. The Bank of Ghana will not always be in the position to inject money, so the fundamentals must be strong,” he said.

He added, “So, very soon, Ghanaians will start asking that the money from the Bank of Ghana is no longer coming, the dollar is going up… where is the 24-hour economy? These are the pillars which are supposed to hold the economy.”
