Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has responded to critics who have, in recent times, asked about his whereabouts at a time when the country’s economy appears to be taking a nosedive.
Dr Bawumia has, for some time now, focused on the administration’s digitization agenda in a bid to prevent wastage, improve efficiency, and eliminate corruption within the public sector, with little talk about Ghana’s economic outlook.
Some, including his political opponents, have accused him of intentionally shying away from commenting on the economy during these difficult times and conveniently addressing issues in the digitalization and ICT space.
But addressing participants of an Agric students’ boot camp at the Jubilee House, Dr. Bawumia responded to the critics, describing the intervention he is leading in the digitalization drive as a big deal.
