A sharp critic of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Paul Adom-Otchere, has given the current John Dramani Mahama administration a thumbs up for performing reasonably well in power.
According to him, even though it is early days yet for the government, its performance has not been abysmal.
Speaking on the “Point of View” show on Channel TV, Adom-Otchere noted that despite his reservations about specific policies, the government’s overall performance has been commendable.
He said, “So far, I think it’s early, but in terms of his optics, I think it’s fine,” adding that “all the micro indicators are coming up strong”.
He argued further that when a new government is elected into office, it spends what he called “inheritance” from the previous government and therefore called for more time for the government in terms of the economy.
“In terms of economic performance, I think we need to give him [Mahama] a bit of time, but certainly the optics are correct, and certainly he was popularly elected,” he stated.
