What do you believe is the single most important factor driving up the cost of living in Nigeria?

Accra, Aug. 26, GNA – The Ghana Union Movement (GUM) says it is not convinced by the policy ideas outlined in the manifestoes of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

The Party said the NPP and NDC policies “lacked concrete actions” to transform the economy and create sustainable jobs for the youth.

In an interview with the Ghana News Agency, Reverend Christian Kwabena Andrews, Founder and Leader of GUM, stated that the manifesto promises were simply a rehash of old ideas, and questioned the NPP and NDC’s credibility to deliver on the new promises.

He said both the NPP and the NDC had had the opportunity to implement their policies during their government but failed to do so and urged voters to disregard the two leading parties’ campaign promises.

“The taxes they promise to abolish were introduced by them. They are saying all these because they want power. I don’t trust them. Both the NPP and the NDC are looking for power just to amass wealth and history has shown,” Rev. Andrews said.
