If I were Akufo-Addo, I would apologize to Ghanaians – Nii Lante Vanderpuye

President Akufo-Addo’s handling of national affairs has come under fire from Odododiodoo MP, Edwin Nii Lante Vanderpuye, who suggested that an apology to Ghanaians would be appropriate given the apparent failure to address the populace’s needs, resulting in widespread hardship.

In response to President Akufo-Addo’s call for Ghanaians to vote against the National Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate in the upcoming elections in December, Vanderpuye made his comments.

The president argues that doing so would imperil the advancements achieved during his administration and threaten the future of the country.

However, Vanderpuye stated in an interview with Umaru Sanda Amadu on Citi FM’s Eyewitness News that he thought President Akufo-Addo would be remembered as the worst president in the history of the nation and that his term would be viewed as one of disappointment.

“…If I were Nana Addo, the best thing I would do as a person is to apologise to the millions of Ghanaians who voted for me and whom I have hugely disappointed. Nana Addo will go into history as the worst president ever in the fourth republic of this country. Worst President ever because he is the most corrupt president in our history.”

“He is the one who has collapsed our economy. Ghana’s economy today is worse than at any time in our history. Is that the legacy he is talking about? Of course, John Mahama will come and correct all,” he stated.
