"President Kufuor has every right to choose anyone he wants to lead his party. He has a right to choose whoever he wants to lead Ghana at this crucial moment.

Many of us also deserve to question the rationale behind his choices, especially if they are related to the pile of economic carnage and political chicanery that have landed us into our current atrophy and international ridicule

Where was President Kufuor's voice when defenceless and frail old men and women had to queue under the scorching sun to beg Nana&Bawumia's government to hands off their savings and miserable pension contributions? And yet they were given dreadful financial haircuts sending almost 900 of these senior citizens prematurely to their graves?

Where was Kufuor when millions of Ghanaians were given ugly financial haircuts solely due to reckless financial and economic management of the Economic Management Team? Did he sympathise with us? Where has he been when we had to deal with 54% inflation rate, still dealing with 40 plus pernicious taxes?

Has he said a word to ordinary businesses and individuals who are toiling to make ends meet ?

Where was he when nearly 1 million Ghanaians were discarded like unwanted flies into deeper poverty by the recklessness of his beloved economic team head and managerially impotent solid team?

Where was Kufuor when his own party of so-called property owning democrats Machiavellianly disenfranchised thousands of Ghanaians in SALL? Any comforting words.?

Where was Kufuor when many young men and women were thrown in jail for daring to question why the government has aided the poisoning of our rivers due to uncontrolled illegal mining?

My dear President Kufuor, can you help with the below?

How will you describe the two scenarios below?

2016. $1=4 cedis

1 bag of cement = 24 cedis

Ghana at IMF, but the government did no 'pickpocketing' of savings of Ghanaians and pensioners through the tortuous debt exchange programme.

Debt as of 2016= 120bn cedis

2024 Bawumia and Nana Addo

$1= 17 cedis (Oct)

1 bag of cement-105 cedis.

Ghana at IMF got there in stiches, plus over 40 painfully higher taxes, wicked financial haircuts -government literally pickpocketed savings of Ghanaians and pensionthe debt exchange programme. (Atutuobutom paaa ). Debt as of 2024 - a staggering 763bn cedis.

According to the World Bank, poverty rates are projected to rise until 2026, peaking at 31.5% in 2025 before slightly declining to 30.6%, with rates at the LMIC line potentially reaching 55.1% by 2026 due to limited growth in services and agriculture and rising prices outpacing income growth for the poorest.- Why?

Perhaps President Kufuor needs to be reminded that his successor president, Nana Addo and his "solid" economic management team headed by Bawumia junketed our economy, drove us into a mighty debt iceberg, literally pickpocketed savings of innocent and defenceless senior citizens against their will, gave the rest of us ugly financial haircuts and finally supervised the worst ecological homicide through illegal mining.

May be President Kufuor should encourage all to choose wisely and peacefully."

Mr Danso, pls forgive Prez Kufour, he doesn't know what he is doing. Old age! How can we be forced to accept the person who was described as an "economic wizkid" but who has become part of the destroyers of the Ghanaian economy as the best among the lot and who must be elected as our next president? Ghana has never sunk this low to the extent of bankruptcy and haircuts. Where from this warped logic from Mr Kufour? But that's how they (NPP) are. They prefer only their own, whether good or bad. However, our consolation is that, the masses are buying none of that and they are singing only ONE song, which is "enough is enough, there is no 8 to be broken here"!

Per what this Akufo-Addo/ Bawumia led government done to Ghana and Ghanaians, how can he make such comments?

Anyway, that's his opinion. He should stick that. But, I know of one thing, thus, Ghana and Ghanaians shall punish the NPP this upcoming general elections, and even more!

Thank you Kwame Danso! I for one find it insulting that we have had the problem of the economy on our hands for a while now with no solution in sight and we are being promised free shs and digitalisation and whatnot and being given endorsements all over the place. What's that? If you are not feeling the heat enough to demand a change in direction, then you are either corrupt too or just blindly following a political party.

Tackle the economy, get us results and sustain it for at least six months and then you qualify to gain our trust for handling other issues. This should be so easy for an economics whizz kid.

In fact the Former President JA Kufour has every right to rate Dr.Digital because the former president himself doesn't want anything good for the country ghana , why when he came to power the year 2000, he told ghanaians that he would use the Osu Castle as his office , therefore he need to renovate his house with the state money to befit a president house and the country did that for him , and after that what happened , he organised all the clergies in the country to go to the Osu Castle and pray so that he can move to the Castle and use it as Office. If some countries I dont think he will have that audarcity to be recommending Dr. Digital to be president , somebody who is economist by intellectual now shift his focus from economy to IT ,which is strange and now the economy is in shamble ,. So, for me I am not surprise at all , this npp people they want to loot the country more ,and ignorant Ghanaians they will following them . May God redeem this country ghana from the hand of this heartless people called npp.
