The nation&#8217;s persistent economic problems have been the driving force behind the mounting calls for Ofori-Atta&#8217;s resignation over the past few years.<\/p>\n<p>Particularly outspoken, the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has accused the Finance Minister over and again of being to blame for the present budgetary problems.<\/p>\n<p>Tuesday, January 16, at Face to Face, Mr. Atta-Akyea stressed the value of self-evaluation for Mr. Ofori-Atta, advising him to consider his position for both his own and the ruling New Patriotic Party&#8217;s (NPP) well-being.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I find it quite problematic because a huge army of people tells you that enough is enough.That seems like a possible technique for him to unwind. One individual looks at all the burdens he has. Therefore, it is up to him to decide for himself whether to go.<\/p>\n<p>Atta-Akyea continued, saying that Ofori-Atta&#8217;s resignation would even help to settle things down for the country and the government.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He needs to examine himself and the problems that everyone feels exist; only when he is gone will there be harmony in the country. Mr. Atta Akyea stated, &#8220;He needs peace, so he should save himself, save the government, and have it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Atta Akyea also aimed at those who attribute the nation&#8217;s economic problems to Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.<\/p>\n<p>He said that while the economy is not doing well, it is &#8220;cruel&#8221; and &#8220;unkind&#8221; for anyone to blame Dr Bawumia for the economic problems facing the Akufo-Addo administration.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Atta Akyea said that the vice president was preventing him from making some critical decisions for the nation because of a very significant adversarial role.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the sake of Ghanaians and the government, Samuel Atta Akyea, the Member of Parliament<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27980,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[25,1],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062.jpg",1200,636,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062-300x159.jpg",300,159,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062-768x407.jpg",640,339,true],"large":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062-1024x543.jpg",640,339,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062.jpg",1200,636,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062.jpg",1200,636,false],"chromenews-featured":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062.jpg",1024,543,false],"chromenews-large":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062.jpg",825,437,false],"chromenews-medium":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062.jpg",590,313,false]},"author_info":{"display_name":"nkyeremunews","author_link":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/author\/nkyeremunews\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/category\/government-and-politics\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Government and Politics<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/category\/uncategorised\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Nkyeremu<\/a>","tag_info":"Nkyeremu","comment_count":"0","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/BeFunky-collag-2024-01-16T152757.062.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27979"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27979"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27979\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27980"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27979"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27979"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27979"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
