In his remarks, the Minister criticised the previous Akufo-Addo administration, accusing it of mismanaging the sector over the past eight years.
He stated:
The sector has experienced a sharp decline in growth and investment, and the regulator has essentially been on autopilot. It is, therefore, shocking to see proponents of the previous government now being the loudest critics of the challenges they themselves created. I am told this is part of a carefully curated art of dark politics called ‘jadam’.
