Senior editor of the Informer Newspaper, Andy Kamkam, has questioned politicians about why Ghana is still borrowing after being blessed with numerous resources as a country.
According to the editor, weak governance and corruption have undermined poverty alleviation efforts in Ghana.
The mismanagement of resources by politicians in this country has contributed greatly to the economic woes of Ghana now.
In a discussion on the Oyerepa Breakfast Show Monday morning, the senior Informer Newspaper editor made it clear that the actions and inactions of our politicians have caused the underdevelopment of Ghana, despite being blessed with all the numerous resources as a country.
He explained how these resources have been underutilized, which could have prevented us from seeking loans and other assistance from other countries.
“Over 50 years of independence and all that God has blessed us with, what have we been able to achieve so far? Nothing to show,” he stated.
Adding to that, it’s about time we make conscious efforts to combat this issue, and our politicians need to know that Ghana is not their property and they cannot treat it as such.
“If Ghana were your family property, would we have treated it in such a manner?” he asked.
