You Cant Upgrade Something Which Is Broken Mahama Hits Back At Bawumia

The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Former President John Dramani Mahama has reacted to Dr Mahamudu Bawumia's "Ghana needs an upgrade, not a reset" claim.

Mahama had stated that Ghana needs a reset because the economy is in bad shape.

However, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia during his media engagement on Sunday, August 25 said: “What this country needs is an upgrade, not reset. And if given the mandate, I will roll out the measures outlined in our recently launched manifesto to revamp the economy”

Mahama fires back

The NDC flagbearer in response to Bawumia said when something is broken, it needs to be fixed and not upgraded.

In a meeting with NDC supporters in Accra on Monday, August 26 he said: “I have said that this is a reset, but somebody says it is an upgrade but how do you upgrade something that is broken, the engine is spoilt so how do you upgrade it?

You need to reset the engine properly and put it in the shape where it can be upgraded and so we need to reset this country. When we talk about resetting we are not talking only about the economy and so at the manifesto launch I didn’t talk only about the economy, I talked about Ghana needs a reset, our economy needs a reset, our governance needs a rest, our attitudes need a rest.”
