Bawumia Engaged In “Spurious Analysis”, His Lecture Was Full Of Lies- Amissah -Arthur

Vice President Amissah -Arthur

The Vice president Kwesi Amissah Arthur has exposed The NPP and Dr Buwumia who are embroiled in a never ending saga of lies and innuendo on the Ghanaian economy with Dr bawumia leading.

I have always said the country Ghana was in tandem with the commanding dogmas of international finance and business, under the safe hands of the chief pilot, the intellectually equipped and experienced economic surgeon Kwesi Amissah -Arthur- Vice President of the Republic of Ghana and , former Governor of the Bank Of Ghana and a major player in international finance circles – currently the Running mate to President John Mahama - I describe him ‘Father of Modern Economics’

Speaking at the party’s manifesto launch in Sunyani Saturday, Mr. Amissah-Arthur who is a former Governor of Bank of Ghana In promised to take on each line of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s recent lecture and expose the lies in each line.

Mr Amisssah said instead of doing justice to the economic situation in the country, Dr. Bawumia rather chose to engage in “spurious analysis”, he claimed. Insisting that the lecture was full of lies,

He corrected them and said the NPP government between 2001 and 2008 increased Ghana’s GDP to 459 percent is false.

“If even the economy improves by 8 percent by a year, you only double that GDP in 9 years.” he explained, “How is it possible that the economy that was not growing at 8 percent, [but] at 3 percent, 4 percent and so on that in 8 years some doctor is saying it grew by almost 500 percent, it is not possible. He is using figures to deceive us.”

Also, he said Bawumia’s comparison of what the NPP was able to do with a certain amount vis-à-vis what the NDC was able to do when it took over from the NPP as flawed. “So I have decided that everywhere we go I will take one of his lies and explain to you why they are lies.

So don’t believe what you read. “I only got my copy of the things he said he read three days ago and when I read it, every line there is a lie there, I can destroy that line.” Mr. Amissah-Arthur is therefore promising to take on “another one of the lies” when on his tour to the Ashanti and Eastern regions.

He said Bawumia was “trying to use figures to bamboozle” Ghanaians for political gain. The lecture was themed, “State of the Ghanaian Economy – A Foundation of Concrete or Straw.”
