Kwesi Pratt Jnr., the Managing Editor of the Insight newspaper, has slammed President Nana Akufo-Addo and his government for making promises he finds ridiculous to fulfill.
According to him, the government has been complaining about not having adequate money, for which reason it is even seeking an IMF bailout, yet it has packed a lot of projects that the government knows it cannot accomplish in its 2023 budget.
Speaking to Kwami Sefa Kayi on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo" discussion show, Mr. Pratt wonders how the government envisages to accomplish the number of projects and promises set out in the budget.
He cited the government stating it is going to reconstruct the Tema motorway and other projections.
"What money are you going to use for all the things you are talking about? I have heard them say they are going to revamp the Tema motorway into six or eight lanes. Where are you going to find the money?", he asked.
Mr. Pratt believed Ghana's first President will be disappointed in the way the country is being run under the current administration.
"What will Kwame Nkrumah tell us should he returns?"

Does Ghana belong to Nkrumah & his ideology? Pathetic politics
Osagyefo had £ 240 million cash at his disposal when he assumed power. The population was less and also there was little rural-urban migration. Over 85% our population were in the villages and towns doing farming.
Uncle Kwesi Dr Kwame Nkrumah will tell us to go and collect the £10 million he gave to Guinea, the £5 million he gave to Mali and the £5 million he gave to South Korea because we need that money. When he gave those monies for political expediency, our population was 4.8 million. Do you know £20 million could have done for this country in 1960?
Most Ghanaians are more disappointed in you and you should be yourself with your know all attitude and archaic mentality. Hide yourself somewhere.
Did Nkrumah struggle as other governments to get money for the country's needs. Didn't he gave to Guinea 10million pounds free of charge.
Give us a break! Under Kwame Nkrumah the country was bankrupt two years before he was overthrown wai!
