The Director of Communications of the New Patriotic Party says the deputy Finance Minister Fifi Kwetey is a repository of lies and should not be taken seriously.
Nana Akomea was reacting to comments made by the deputy minister during Wednesday’s Forum for Setting the Records Straight.
Fifi Kwetey in that forum said the NPP cannot be trusted to deliver on the promises they make to the people of Ghana.
According to him, the NPP cannot continue with the promise of transforming Ghana when their record of infrastructural development in the eight year tenure under ex-president Kufuor is nothing to write home about.
He challenged the NPP to name a single infrastructure project they undertook with the $750 million loan it contracted under ex-president Kufuor.
On the contrary he said the NDC will soon be pointing at the Accra plains irrigation project, the Western corridor petroleum terminal project and the Eastern corridor multi modal transportation project for the $3 billion loan it has contracted.
He also attacked the credentials of the NPP running mate, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia who he said led the then government in their phantom search for loans at a hair dressing salon.
It will only take two minutes for the current Vice President Paa Kwesi Arthur to figure out this scam, Fifi Kwetey indicated.
He said if the NPP wants to know what the government did with the loans it has contracted so far, it should find out how the TOR debt the Kufuor government left behind was paid.
“How does the NPP think the NDC has been able within three years to connect as many as 1700 communities to the National grid,” he quizzed.
But the NPP Director of Communications Nana Akomea insists the former Propaganda Secretary of the NDC is not known for telling the truth.
“The NDC is probably the only party in Africa which has a propaganda department. This government’s stock in trade in lies, lies, lies".
He said the NPP’s economic achievements cannot be disputed after it grew the economy from the $4 billions it inherited in 2001 to over $16 billion before leaving power in 2008.
