NDC presidential candidate John Dramani Mahama publicly challenged Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to answer five pressing economic questions during the 2024 campaign. Mahama questioned why the cedi trades at GH¢17 to the dollar, Ghana’s debt has surged from GH¢120 billion to GH¢767 billion, inflation has soared to 54%, and why GH¢42 billion was borrowed from the Bank of Ghana. Additionally, he criticized Bawumia for prioritizing digitalization over direct economic management, urging him to address Ghana’s economic issues directly.
