Kofi Asamoah-Siaw, National Secretary of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP) has taken a swipe at some ministers in the current Mahama administration, describing them as arrogant.

The party believes the blatant show of arrogance as exhibited by some officials of the government is worrying.

It would be recalled that Brigadier General Nunoo-Mensah (Rtd), National Security Advisor, came under a barrage of attacks recently after he asked Ghanaian workers to stop the incessant strikes and demonstrations, and move out of the country.

“Every Tom, Dick and Harry gets up and is calling for a strike. If you don’t want the job, Ghana is not a police state, take your passport and get out of this country…If you can’t sacrifice like what some of us have done then get out. If the kitchen is too hot for you, get out,” he said.

The Minister of State in charge of Financial and Allied Institutions, Fifi Kwetey last Friday, told a radio station that “monies for development do not drop from heaven but rather come from taxes.

But the PPP scribe, in a statement issued in Accra, averred that Ghanaians would no longer bear the “arrogance” of the Ministers of state.

“Such arrogance exhibited by people in power is worrying, especially coming from people who belong to a political party that in opposition used words such as ‘impunity,’ ‘arrogant,’ ‘profligate spenders’ and ‘pompous’ against the people in power and campaigned to do better.

According to Asamoah-Siaw, some members of the current administration called Ghanaians all kinds of names “when they complained about the pricing of petroleum products, water and electricity.

“When our youth complained about unemployment, they were called lazy.”

It alleged that over the past four years, the Mills-Mahama administration had impoverished the nation by presiding over state-sponsored corruption, adding “we look left there are judgment debts – Isofoton, Construction Pioneers, Woyome, we look right, there are inflated contracts. We look behind us and we find hundreds of millions of loans and grants unutilized due to incompetence and unwillingness to let the best people to do the work.”
