The Greater Accra Regional Minister, Nii Laryea Afotey-Agbo, has advised critics of the economy to stop criticizing every move of the government because there is hardship everywhere including America and the United Kingdom.

In an interview with Atinka News, Nii Laryea Afotey-Agbo mentioned that critics especially the political opponents of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) have stopped talking about the developments in the country and have resorted to so-called hardship in the country as a yardstick in measuring the government’s performance .

He stated that Ghana is doing very well compared to other countries on continent. He mentioned that other countries rely on bank loans to pay salaries of workers but Ghana doesn’t .

According to Nii Afotey-Agbo, Ghanaian workers are paid every month and that developmental projects are going smoothly which we should be proud of.

He stressed that Ghanaians need to work hard in order to ensure the growth of the country because Ghana is not going through any difficult times.
