The minority in Parliament has become the latest to respond to what Vice President said was the comparison of crisis management records of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and National Democratic Congress (NDC).
The minority at a press conference on COVID-19 described the Vice President’s act as “old-fashioned excessive partisan politics and infantile name calling.”
Ghana has now recorded 3,091 cases of the deadly COVID-19 pandemic with 18 deaths.
The minority at the press conference condemned the timing of the Vice President’s “comparisons.”
The minority reminded the Vice President of the severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the need for the government to focus its attention on safeguarding lives.
“The impact of COVID-19 on our economy has been most devastating – from massive job losses, closure of businesses to a historic fall in GDP growth.”
“This certainly cannot be the time for old-fashioned excessive partisan politics and infantile name calling as Vice President Dr. MahamaduBawumia sought to do earlier this week.”
“This is the time to focus every attention on this national crisis that threatens the very foundations of our society,” the minority stated.
