The current administration, in our view, is failing to manage our economy with transformation in mind, failing to inspire confidence, and failing to uphold the dignity of our people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"1104\" data-end=\"1303\">According to the Minority Leader, the NPP is not merely an alternative political choice but the solution Ghana needs to address its economic challenges, citing the party\u2019s track record in government.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-start=\"1305\" data-end=\"1590\">\n<p data-start=\"1307\" data-end=\"1590\">\u201cThe New Patriotic Party is not just a political option; it is a singular solution Ghana requires. The records will bear us out. We showed that for eight years under President Kufuor and under President Akufo-Addo\u2019s leadership, we led Ghana towards transformation until COVID struck.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote data-start=\"1592\" data-end=\"1873\">\n<p data-start=\"1594\" data-end=\"1873\">\u201cAgainst all odds, we put Ghana back on the path of recovery. Indeed, the NDC offers much more PR gimmick than proper management. The NPP offers a proven blueprint. History will ask what we built when Ghana needed us most. The solution is here, and the solution is us,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Minority in Parliament has raised concerns about what it describes as the poor management of the economy under President John Dramani Mahama\u2019s administration, insisting that Ghanaians are yearning for what it calls the proven and competent leadership of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
