The NDC General Secretary explained that, the much talked credentials of Dr Bawumia couldn’t match the experience of his party’s veep nominee in the person of Prof Jane Naana Opoku-Agyeman.
As an experienced person in Ghana’s constitution, the NDC General Secretary said, it was wrong for the NPP and some individuals to think that, a veep must have a qualification in Economics.
He added, if Dr Bawumia was good at his work on policies, the Ghana Prison Service and the Ghana Police Services could have seen better administration in their performance.
Narrow Specialisation is not a prerequisite to the office of Vice President, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah
Mr Asiedu Nketiah spoke to Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme on 15th July 2020.
Mr Asiedu Nketiah added that because Dr Bawumia was inept at policy making that is why the Church of Pentecost took upon herself to build five settlement camp prisons for the Ghana Prisons Service to help ease congestion in the country’s prisons.
Late last year, the church of Pentecost announced that, five new prison facilities were to be constructed in Obuasi and Ejura in the Ashanti Region, Nsawam in the Eastern Region, Hawia in the Western Region, and Kenyasi in the Ahafo Region.
You will recall that, Dr Bawumia, was allegedly sacked by the government of Zimbabwe as an Economics Advisor to that country before the New Patriotic Party won the 2016 general elections.
