The Brong-Ahafo Regional Research Officer of the NPP, Mr. John Bugri, has slammed the NDC government for using school buses to convey their supporters during President Mills’ recent visit to the region.
He also faulted president Mills for using 9 riders and more than thirty five vehicles in his convoy when he had promised during the 2088 campaign to use only three vehicles in his convoy.
Mr. Bugri told Space FM in Sunyani that what the president has done amounts to the greatest deception and called on him to apologize to Ghanaians.
The research officer added that then candidate Mills during the 2008 campaign, promised to reduce prices of commodities but seven months into his administration, prices of most commodities have shot up bringing hardship to most Ghanaians.
Mr. Bugri noted that during the eight year rule of ex-president Kufour, price of cement was increased by only ¢60,000 but the NDC government has increased the price of cement from ¢90,000 to ¢130,000 in just seven months.
In the same way, petrol price has shot up, though the world market price is lower compared to the all time high price during the Kufour administration.
Against this background, Mr. Bugri believes president Mills has failed to proper manage the nation and must resign.
He also challenged the Mills government to explain to Ghanaians what the ¢25 trillion loan so far contracted has been used for.
He again urged the NDC government to desist from intimidating opponents in the interest of national cohesion and unity.
