NPP has penchant for cutting sod for projects without funds

The Northern Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has accused the New Patriotic Party (NPP) of frequently initiating projects without securing the necessary funding.

Adolf Ali criticised Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, who is also the NPP's flagbearer, for what he described as a "penchant for cutting sods" without following through on these projects.

Speaking during a visit to the Lamashegu exhibition centre as part of his tour of voter exhibition centres in the region, he contrasted the leadership of former President John Mahama with that of Dr Bawumia.

He said, "Ghanaians can trust John Mahama to deliver on his promises; the same cannot be said about Dr Bawumia."

Mr Ali pointed out that former President Mahama has a track record of fulfilling his commitments, stressing that "one can never tag former President Mahama as a liar."
