Nhyiaeso MP Dr. Stephen Amoah has urged politicians to put national interest ahead of party affiliations, emphasizing that Ghana’s economic progress should not be sacrificed for political gains.
Speaking on Newsfile on Joy Prime, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) legislator commended Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson for his financial expertise, despite their political differences.
“Ato Forson is a very knowledgeable Finance Minister. When I say it, people attack, but I have worked with him on the Finance Committee of Parliament, and I know what I am talking about,” Dr. Amoah stated.
However, he cautioned that competence alone is not enough to drive economic growth, stressing the need for strategic execution.
“Competence alone is not enough; we need strategic implementation to achieve real economic progress,” he said.
Dr. Amoah further called for collective responsibility in economic management, insisting that Ghana’s economy is larger than any political party.
“The economy is bigger than political parties; we must prioritize the welfare of Ghanaians over partisan debates,” he added.
His remarks reinforce calls for bipartisan cooperation to address Ghana’s economic challenges effectively.
