Former President John Dramani Mahama has stated that the Akufo-Addo-led government inherited more than $ 270 million from the Democratic National Congress administration.
Speaking at an event called: Professional Dialogue Series on October 26, John Mahama refuted all claims made by President Akufo-Addo that he left the New Patriotic Party with nothing when they took office in 2017.
Describing the success of the NDC, the party standard-bearer revealed that his administration left the PNP’s income from two oil fields, a total of $ 270 million, as well as some money in the stabilization fund.
“I left him the income from two new oil fields; the Diez field and the ENI Sankofa field. I left him with $ 270 million in the Ghana infrastructure investment fund.
“I also left them 207 million dollars in the Stabilization Fund and about 300 million in the Sinking Fund,” he said.
In addition, he reiterated that the PNP government has not been able to maintain the economic growth and success that the NDC transmitted to it.
The NDC standard-bearer mentioned that the nuclear power plant is not capable of managing the economic affairs of the country.
“Ghana was projected to achieve 8% GDP growth in 2017, which was supposed to be sustained in the coming years.
“The nuclear power plant that took office in 2017 inherited that growth, but was unable to increase or maintain the height we set.
“In the following years they registered a growth that has been below 8%,” he said.
