Member of Parliament for Bolgatanga Central and Ranking Member for the Finance Committee, Isaac Adongo, is set to deliver a lecture on Valentine’s Day at a forum organized by the Coalition For Restoration (CFR).
The lecture comes as a response to the recent public address by Vice President and New Patriotic Party Flagbearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, where he outlined his vision for Ghana ahead of the 2024 General Elections, titled “Ghana’s Next Chapter”.
In Dr. Bawumia’s speech, he pledged to eliminate several taxes, including the E-levy, Emissions levy, and VAT on Electricity, while also committing to reducing the number of ministers to only 50.
However, the CFR, in a statement, criticized Dr. Bawumia’s address, calling it “riddled with errors, obvious inaccuracies, deliberate lies, deceptive, and misleading presentations”. In response, they have invited Isaac Adongo to use their platform to address what they perceive as distortions.
“I want to correct him and set the records straight once and for all. Ghanaians cannot be scammed again. The receipt cannot continue to the detriment of students,” Mr Adongo remarked, according to the statement.
The lecture, scheduled for February 14, 2024, will take place at the Chartered Institute of Bankers, East Legon in Accra, under the theme “Ghana’s Next Chapter: The Height of Clueless Leadership, Next Installment of Bold Lies, Hardship, and Aggravated Economic Mismanagement.”
