"The cry you hear from Ghanaians every day is 'Enko yie,'” the ex-president, who is running to lead the NDC into the 2020 polls said.

Former President John Mahama has blasted President Nana Akufo-Addo handling of the economy, saying business confidence has gone down and economic activities are at a "standstill."

He said business confidence was at all time high under his four-year tenure "and economic activity and investment in the real sector exceeded the performance in the last two years under the NPP".

"We must be proud of our party and proud of our record in Government. At each opportunity we have had to serve in government, the people of Ghana have seen more rapid progress in terms of development and improvement in economic activity," he said.

He added: "Development in the roads, education, healthcare, electricity and water sectors, and also in the aviation and maritime subsectors were clearly visible for all Ghanaians to see."
