The Minister of Employment and Labour Relations, Haruna Iddrisu has hit hard at the running mate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Dr Mahamudu Bawumia over his recent comments during a public lecture about the state the country’s economy.
He describes him as someone bereft of the intellectual understanding of issues of the Ghanaian economy, which could have influence the ‘dishonest’ comments he made.
“Bawumia has accused President Mahama and the NDC government of lacking policy credibility …..Let Dr Bawumia know and learn more economics because we have borrowed Eurobond to pay for the 2007 Eurobond wasted by his NPP government”, he said.
According to the Labour Minister at the Tamale Central NDC Constituency Campaign Launch over the weekend, the party has more credibility than its opponents in the NPP wondering if Bawumia now speaks on “Propagandaeconomics or real Economics”.
The outspoken legislator observed that the NDC is on record to have invested more in secondary and tertiary education more than any government in the country laughing off promises by Dr Bawumia and his party to also build 600 of such facilities if they are voted for.
“Judging from their promises I wonder who is more credible. It is obvious the NDC and President Mahama is more credible than the NPP”, he said.
He reiterated that the NDC government has borrowed to embark on radical development to inure to the benefit of the citizenry and not for personal growth as witnessed under the NPP where loans were contracted for personal gain.
To this end, he called Dr Bawumia to revisit his basic economic lecture notes to understand the real issues on the ground than go about deceiving the public with ‘cooked and deceitful” figures.

Haruna, leave the Economists like the Vice-President to comment. Unfortunately, he chickened out giving a laughable excuse leaving people like who know next to nothing about economics to comment. Whatever Dr. Bawumia's predictions have been have always come to pass. I don't know what you are trying to portray. We are still waiting for 170 questions which needs answers.
You are S.Tupid. You don't know what you are talking about. You couldn't even graduate from University. S.llu f0ol
See who is talking!!!! The copy-cat, plagiarist-supremo, intellectual ***barred word***, ***barred word*** of intellectual property. why was your MPhil certificate withdrawn at Legon? Plagiarism, stealing someone's content and making it yours, ***barred word***. And you even had the courage to submit it for an award when you were caught, ***barred word***. You dare say a self-made and hardworking person is bereft of ideas in his area of specialization which has gained him international recognition. ***barred word***, how dare you. Come again
A plagiarist who had been appointed as a minister of state. Even writing a simple social science Master's thesis was difficult for you, you compare yourself with Dr Bawumia who have PhD in Economics. The cheek of it in fact, these NDC young ministers and deputies don't respect at all.
When you think a disgraced student, who has been forgiven, will keep quiet when issues of intellect are being discussed, then you hear them challenging the intellect of proven people. Talk, especially in Ghana, is cheap.
Man, you need more lectures to write your own thesis instead of dishonestly copying someone's original academic work for your master's thesis. Shame, shame, shame!

Are you surprised at the Parasites from the North comments? You think he's an NPP man making such a tribal comment? Don't be deceived. He's an NDC mole masquerading as NPP. That's their style and you should know that by now. The NDC thrive on tribalism.
It is "Dr" Haruna's own Amissah Arthur who needs some lessons in economics. Bawumia delivers and everybody, except the NDC gets convinced. Let the economics "Dr" Haruna dispute Bawumia's claims with hardcore statistics like he did. What Haruna and the NDC are doing is close to "masturbation" and thinking they have a woman. Amissah Arthur had o chicken our of responding to Dr Bawumia. So Haruna should drink and sleep. Desperation has set in.
Bawumia substantiated his presentation with statistical data. If you disagree with him why don't you debunk his presentation with figures.It shows how hollow you NDC people are.
