National Communications officer the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi, has offered a cryptic response to the digitalization lecture by Vice President Dr. Mahamamudu Bawumia.
According to him, the e-pharmacy being touted by the Vice President is of no use to the ordinary Ghanaian who is reeling under excruciating economic hardships as a result of the introduction of excessive taxes and steep increases in fuel prices by the Akufo-Addo government.
“Of what use is “E-this and E-that” to the ordinary Ghanaian who is jobless and cannot even afford to buy mobile data to access these digital platforms,” he quizzed?
In a post on his Facebook Wall, the NDC scribe argued the Mahama-led NDC administration has a superior record in digitization and provided a link to the investments the previous government did in the sector.
Digitalization, he said, is good and helps to do things effectively with ease but argued digitalization is useless unless it is linked to the economic empowerment of the people.
“Ghana’s economy is currently in tatters due to the crass economic mismanagement of the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia NPP government. Our ever-rising Public Debt has reached an alarmingly unsustainable level.”
“The rate of unemployment is on the rise and cost of living has become unbearable for the vast majority of Ghanaians. “kromAyeshe” and Ghanaians are suffering,” he said.

Digitalization is good. It helps people to do things effectively with ease. The NDC/Mahama administration has a superior record in that regard. See https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=416276186567141&id=100045542882464 . But digitalization is useless, unless it is linked to the economic empowerment of the people.
Ghana’s economy is currently in tatters due to the crass economic mismanagement of the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia NPP government. Our ever-rising Public Debt has reached an alarmingly unsustainable level. The rate of unemployment is on the rise and cost of living has become unbearable for the vast majority of Ghanaians. “kromAyeshe” and Ghanaians are suffering.
The answer to these problems doesn’t lie in the organization of lectures on digitalization. Dr. Bawuliar should sit up, stop peddling falsehood and fix our broken economy. That’s what Ghanaians expect from him as Head of the Economic Management Team of government.
