The vice president of Ghana Professor Jane Naana Opoku Agyeman has fearlessly announced Ghana at the right time will take action against US President Donald Trump.
Her remarks come in response to the Donald Trump administration freezing the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) which has sparked mayhem around the world.
According to Jane Naana Opoku, Donald Trump has failed to ask himself how much leaves the African continent for his country the United States of America.
She noted that the Donald Trump administration thinks the USAID is just charity which according to her is not.
Professor Jane Naana Opoku Agyeman stated, “Somebody is asking about the outside world and foreign aid, and I have heard the president of the country you are studying is slashing aid.
One of the questions he hasn’t asked himself is how much leaves our continent to his country. He hasn’t asked himself that, they think it is just charity it is not.
At the right time, we will also take our action and it will not be funny”, she added.
Meanwhile, President John Dramani Mahama has stated Ghana is not going to wait for USAID handouts after US President Donald Trump froze the aid.
According to John Mahama Ghana will will rather invest in our farmers to increase food production and ensure food security.
He noted that some US farmers are unhappy with the freeze of the USAID because the USAID was used to mob up excess US foods.
John Mahama revealed it is an opportunity for Africa to increase food production and so if that aid stops coming Africa will make the investments.
Speaking at the MSC Townhall in Munich, John Mahama stated, “The Trump playbook is still playing out, and so we want to see where it heads towards, but I was just reading US farmers are beginning to complain because USAID was the biggest mopper of excess food for food aid to Africa and USAID is not doing the auction the mops up the excess US foods and so the US farmers are complaining.
But it is an opportunity for Africa to increase food production and so if that aid stops coming we will make the investments that are necessary to make our farmers more productive so that we can establish food security in Africa instead of waiting for those USAID handouts to come”, he added.
Additionally, President Mahama before the meeting ordered Ato Forson the Finance Minister to bridge the $156m USAID frozen by US President Donald Trump.
According to a statement from the presidency, John Mahama expressed deep concern over the funding gap estimated at $156 million.
For now, many health professionals worldwide have voiced their disappointment and concern over the freeze of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), which distributes tens of billions of dollars worth of overseas aid every year.
