Wasn’t the Health minister treated in one of our Green Book fantasy projects? – Okudzeto jabs govt

Member of Parliament for North Tongu constituency, Mr. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa is asking government whether the University of Ghana Medical Center, (UGMC) where the health minister received his COVID-19 treatment is also a delusion.

According to him, government is publicly rubbishing the hard work and efforts by the past Mahama-led administration but secretly reaping its benefits.

“The health minister is my good friend and I’ve wished him a speedy recovery publicly on twitter, Facebook and all over but where did he go for his Covid treatment? Isn’t it University of Ghana Medical Centre? Is that also a fantasy project?” he asked.

Speaking on Okay FM’s morning show, Mr Okudzeto indicated that the NPP is pretending not to see and give the necessary acknowledgment to the NDC for their unprecedented infrastructural development initiatives.

“In one breath you tell Ghanaians it's NPP’s project and that we don’t deserve credit. In another breath, you tell everyone you’re finishing NDC’s project. Which is which? Let’s respect the data. Let’s be sincere and truthful. This attempt to take out NDC’s contribution is bad.

Background

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo during the commissioning of the Tema Motorway Interchange described claims by NDC that it undertook unprecedented infrastructural development, including roads, as a mere fantasy that was contained in the Green Book of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

“We made a pledge to the Ghanaian people to expand and improve the road network while closing the missing links in the network. We had to make this pledge because we know that the so-called unprecedented infrastructure development of the Mahama administration was fantasy; existing in the Green Book and not on the ground,” President Akufo-Addo said when he inaugurated the $57-million Tema Motorway Interchange project that is being financed by the government of Japan through the Japanese International Cooperation Agreement (JICA),” he stated.
