The NDC national executive said the President was lauded by all for making such a bold decision but was disappointed when it emerged that the amount in question was not readily available for use.
“When the Finance Minister went to parliament it came out that what the President said was ‘419’, it was a lie because there was no such any amount anywhere.”
The government indicated it was going to borrow. It manifest the fact that President Akufo-Addo is sleeping on the job and taking the health needs of Ghanaians of for granted”, he stated.
