Deputy General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Koku Anyidoho says the Finance Minster, Ken Ofori-Atta will have absolutely nothing new to say in his 2018 budget presentation.
“He [Ken Ofori-Atta] will be interested in telling us about his entire family both the living and the dead rather than presenting a budget. He has nothing to tell us, nothing new,” Koku said in an interview with Neat FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’.
Ken Ofori-Atta will on Wednesday present the 2018 Budget and Economic Policy of the government to Parliament, in which he will be seeking approval to spend some GHc61 billion.
The amount is needed to anchor the government’s agenda of moving the economy beyond the reliance on foreign support or aid.
The budget is, therefore, expected to focus on ensuring macroeconomic stability, transforming agriculture and industry, strengthening social protection and inclusion, building on economic and social infrastructure and reforming public service delivery institutions.
The Minister is expected to announce a number of initiatives towards stimulating economic activities and ultimately ensuring economic growth and the creation of jobs.
But Koku argues all what the Nana Addo-led government has promised is a hoax and cannot not deliver as promised.
“What they promised in their earlier budget, we are yet to see that. I don’t think they are coming to say something new. It will be a recap of the old thing with big grammar. The NPP will not bring a relief to Ghanaians,” he said.

NPP has nothing to offer. Always seeking for crowd
SO DO WE HAVE A RESPONSIBLE OPPOSITION AT ALL? THE CURRENT OPPOSITION IN THE COUNTRY ARE FULL OF jokers. WHEN AT ALL WILL THE OFFER CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM? THESE WERE THEIR CAMPAIGN MESSAGE THROUGHOUT 2016. THEY DID NOT CARRY ANY CONVINCING MESSAGE TO THE ORDINARY GHANAIAN,AND THEY STILL HAVEN'T LEARN LESSONS.
Oh, is this how my beloved country has sunk to the abyss? So this Koku something man was once in government in that NDC administration? No wonder Ghana didn't make any significant progress during the NDC era. I have been listening to this man for sometime, and if am not mistaken, he comes across as one who is full of insults. I think he must be ignored because he does not have any good thing to offer the nation. He always sounds very arrogant and pompous. He needs to humble himself, because Ghana does not belong to him!
WHY SHOULD THE MEDIA EVEN GIVE ATTENTION TO THIS M.O.R.O.N OF A HUMAN BEING? IF THEY WANT TO GRANT AN INTERVIEW ARE THERE NOT MORE INTELLIGENT PEOPLE THAN THIS F.U.U.U.L.I.S.SH ***AS HOLE OF A CREATURE.
