The Alliance for Social Equity and Public Accountability (ASEPA) says claims that the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) are better managers of the Ghanaian economy are inaccurate.

According to ASEPA, available evidence backed by documents from Ghana International financial donors suggest that the opposition National Democratic Congress does better with the economy.

In a statement Monday, ASEPA said it has obtained documents suggesting that the economy performed poorly when Vice President Bawumia was deputy governor of the Central bank under former President Kufuor.

“Fact is the NPP Government left a totally crushed economy with almost nothing in the coffers plus a single spine pay policy risk to the almost dead Economy. But at the same time Dr.Bawumia was on campaign platforms bastardising the NDC as worst managers of the economy when his track record at the bank of Ghana was by making the Ghanaian Cedi one of the worst performing currencies in the World.

“Folks, this is the legacy of your’s truly Dr Mahamudu Bawumia at the Bank of Ghana and also as part of the team that managed the Ghanaian Economy between 2001-2009.

“Folks I am going to show another document, I told you today is revelation day and we shall demystify all the myths that have surrounded our body Politics for so long. The second document I am going to show you will blow your mind…

“This is a report by the Standard Bank Group Limited in the UK in November 2009, less than a year after President Mills assumed office.

The Standard Group carried out its independent assessment of the Ghanaian Economy and 24 other emerging markets,” the statement signed by the Executive director of ASEPA said.

ASEPA also claims former President John Mahama turned the course of the economy positively when he took over as President.
