Could anyone be more wicked than Akufo-Addo? – X user quizzes over hardship

An X user believed to be a Ghanaian has expressed displeasure with President Akufo-Addo over his recent remarks that laud his government’s work for close to eight years.

President Akufo-Addo stands firm amid criticism, praising his administration’s track record.

In a video gone viral, the president said, “In all modesty, I am exceedingly proud of my record in office and the considerable achievements that have been recorded in all sectors of national life these seven and half years.”

“Whether it is in the management of the national economy, education, healthcare, roads and railways, digitalisation, infrastructure development, agricultural and industrial transformation, the protection of Ghana’s territorial integrity, and security, the fight against corruption, battle against environmental degradation, the response of the COVID-19 pandemic, entrenching the tenets of good governance and law, contributing to the attainment of regional and continental integration in unity, being at the forefront of the great demand for the reform of global governance institution, or in advocating respect….. the record is there for all to see. I believe it is one in all humility, isat the least the equal of any in the history of the fourth republic,” he added.

But according to X user, @Oh_Menua, it is unacceptable for the president to pat himself on the back when Ghanaians continue to suffer.

“Ghanaians are suffering in hardship, but our President @NAkufoAddo says he’s proud of his achievements, could anyone be more wicked?”

Reacting to the same video, Ghanaian media personality Bridget Otoo has heavily criticized President Akufo-Addo describing him as suffering from dementia.

“Dementia is very common among persons of his age bracket,” Otoo stated.

Ghana continues to tackle inflation, corruption, lack of infrastructural development in the education sector among others.
