A member of the Government�s Communication Team, Ernest Brogya Genfi, has implored Ghanaians to also contribute their quota to the development of the economy. Wading into the discourse that the current administration deserves to be shown the exit, come 2016, Brogya Genfi, speaking on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo", appealed to the public to be a bit patient since the ruling National Democratic Congress is bent on delivering its Better Ghana Agenda. He asked Ghanaians not to jump the gun since President John Dramani Mahama still has two more years to bring the needed economic relief. Sharing his thoughts on the 2014 Mid-Year Budget Review presented in Parliament on Wednesday, by the Finance Minister Seth Terkper, the NDC Communicator was hopeful the Mahama administration will scale over the present economic challenges. The Finance Minister, he said, outlined some factors which have led to the country�s present predicament, including the �fall in World Commodity prices of Gold and Cocoa in 2013 and 2014, which affected Ghana�s foreign exchange earnings" but to Brogya Genfi, he is "not sure that this is because of an incompetent President... Urging the citizenry not to blame the President for our current woes, Brogya Genfi stressed that Ghanaians have the duty of helping develop the country. "We all as Ghanaians, our appetite for foreign and imported products is also a contributing factor that has increased our import bill. I am not sure that this is also because of an incompetent President,� he said. He therefore charged Ghanaians to "begin to give ideas. We must begin, ourselves, to show commitment to the State and continue to do things which will develop the nation.� �We have two years ahead of us to decide whether President Mahama deserves another term like any other President or rather change President Mahama. So, the solution does not lie in changing an NDC government... �What will be the reason and justification for bringing the NPP back?� he quizzed.
