He noted that Akufo-Addo had no co-equal but look at how it ended up for the country.

According to Martin Kpebu, although John Mahama has started well and is saying all the right things Ghanaians must not get excited yet.

The private legal practitioner noted that when presidents assume office they normally start very well with the first few months coming with a lot of euphoria.

Speaking on TV3’s Key Points, on March 1, he stated, “You can see that this country has changed, every day as I interact with people you can see our consciousness is increasing so the political class has to really brace themselves up to for better leadership”.

“Now it is not going to be business as usual. Thankfully, the president is saying all the right things but we will not get excited yet because we have been warned that when they start they do very well”, Kpebu added.

He added, “When they come the first few months there is a lot of euphoria, and so we will wait. Akufo-Addo was our darling boy, he had no co-equal, he said ‘I am not corrupt, I am incorruptible’, so I will want to wait to see the end.

“[President Mahama] said he has given the finance Minister a free-range to cut down expenditure, which was something we kept pushing Akufo-Addo to do.”

Meanwhile, Martin Kpebu on the show also tackled an economist Dr. George Domfeh for talking about economic growth while ignoring the struggles of Ghanaians.

According to Martin Kpebu, Kenkey is between five and seven cedis, and Koko is no less than three cedis yet was talking about macroeconomic indicators.

He asserted that if Dr Domfeh does not analyse and put the citizen at the centre front and centre of his analysis it is not going anywhere.

Kpebu noted that the macroeconomic indicators must translate into real improvements in people’s lives.

Martin Kpebu stated, “Dr Domfeh if you don’t analyse and put the citizen at the centre—front and centre—your analysis is going nowhere”.

“The Constitution is clear: it’s not just about economic growth but about securing the maximum welfare, freedom, and happiness of every Ghanaian,” he added.

The Private legal practitioner added, “You admit people are suffering but quickly move on to macroeconomic figures. What’s the use of economic growth if it’s jobless growth?”.

Martin Kpebu further tackled Dr Domfeh for ignoring key facts regarding Ghana’s history with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

He stated, “From John Mahama’s time, Ghana was under an IMF program. Did we receive IMF money or not? Did we extend the IMF program or not? These are facts, yet you left them out of your analysis”.

“Kenkey is between five and seven cedis, and Koko is no less than three cedis. The prices of basic goods have skyrocketed, yet you talk about economic growth as though that’s all that matters. This is why your analysis falls short”, he stated boldly.
