NPP Minority Accuses President Mahama of Economic Propaganda

The NPP Minority caucus criticizes President Mahama for allegedly misrepresenting Ghana’s economy during his SONA. Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam argues that the economy has shown significant recovery indicators since the NPP took office, contrary to Mahama’s claims. He highlights essential economic metrics like GDP growth and external reserves to illustrate this improvement despite Mahama’s focus on inflation figures.

The Minority caucus of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has accused President John Dramani Mahama of utilizing propaganda regarding Ghana’s economic state in his maiden State of the Nation Address (SONA). At a press conference held on March 3, 2025, former Finance Minister Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam stated that a true representation of the nation’s situation would have acknowledged the struggles faced in 2022 as well as the positive developments resulting from NPP government policies and IMF support.

In conclusion, the Minority caucus has articulated that the economic indicators under the current NPP government portray a recovering economy, in sharp contrast to President Mahama’s portrayal. Key aspects such as GDP growth, trade balance, and current account performance suggest a resilient economic state. It is essential for the dialogue surrounding the economy to reflect these positive advancements rather than focusing on selective data.
