President Nana Akufo-Addo has so far broken five campaign promises in less than two months in office, according to the Minority National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Parliament.
Speaking at a news conference to dissect the 2017 budget statement of the Akufo-Addo administration, the Minority Leader Haruna Iddrisu mentioned the President’s broken promises below:
“Pay the arrears owed to contractors in the first 100 days of his administration. This was not captured in the budget;
“Pall all customers of DKM, God is Love, Jasper Motors among others who lost monies as a result of the microfinance scams in the Brong Ahafo region in particular but no mention was made of it in the budget;
“Reduce corporate tax from 25% to 20% but this was not captured in the budget; “Remove import duties on raw materials and machinery for production, reduce drivers’ insurance levies and cost of licence; and immediately reduce electricity tariffs and transportation fares but this was missing in the budget.”
According to the Minority Leader, the budget of the Akufo-Addo administration fell short of what was required to demonstration that the NPP will meet the promises made in their 2016 manifesto and on the campaign trail.

The mess you in particular created he has to clean it up & begin with his fresh ideas. Whoever wishes him ill luck must realize God does not think like the way human beings does.
A bit much coming from the adum adumdum bagyae guy
Is it by force that we must at all cost find fault with everything. Please these five things you are alluding to especially this DKM thing how can it be captured in the budget. It must be facilitated in its retrieval. The corporate tax and the others there was no time lines so what is your beef Mr Haruna. You are calling for 100days but it can not be found in the manifesto. Let move beyond this cheap propaganda.
Pls pls talk like an intellectual.one Budget not enough to address every problem.Pls.This Government must be lauded for the bold initiatives they've put in place.jealousy go shame.
Is the president's mandate for four years or two months? Why are these NDC people so frustrated?? I can't think far koraa
NPP fanatics believing in sakawa matricky 419 budget. I weep for Ghana, all those so called tax cuts goes for the reach and none of you the poor will benefit even a cedi, I just pity you those who can not read between the lines, I give you only six months and you Ghanaians will know NPP deceit.
