Minority Leader in Parliament Dr Cassiel Ato Forson has charged Ghanaians to vote out the Akufo-Addo government and send a clear message to all politicians that the electorate cannot be taken for granted.
He said the upcoming election will determine the destiny of the country, which is currently headed in the wrong direction.
Blaming the ruling NPP government for destroying Ghana and running the country's economy aground thereby inflicting hardship on Ghanaians, he warned that Ghanaians should not reward such terrible performance.
According to Dr Forson, the NPP government has embarked on a borrowing spree, taking Ghana’s debt stock to a staggering GHS761 billion with little to show for it.
That aside, he accused the government of taking peoples' hard-earned investments through the debt exchange program, describing it as an act of wickedness that must be punished by the electorate.
"These guys have destroyed the country, and it is time we all get up and vote against them in the upcoming elections to save this country else they won't take us all seriously.
"They have mortgaged the future of the country and the time to rescue the country is now, he stated.
Dr Ato Forson was speaking at a stakeholders forum at Mankessim in the Mfantseman constituency as part of his campaign tour of the Central region.
Among those present were leaders of the Christian and Muslim communities, teachers, traders and artisans.
He urged the gathering to support President Mahama’s vision for the country, assuring that the NDC will implement transformational policies to support micro and small businesses and artisans.
Dr Forson reiterated President Mahama's pledge to establish a modern market for Mankessim similar to the ultra-modern Kotokuraba market in Cape Coast.
