Former Finance Minister, Seth Terkper has called on Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia to pull out his questions thrown at late Vice President Kwesi Amissah-Arthur and answer them first before calling for a “showdown” with former President John Mahama.
Mr. Terkper explained that former President John Mahama as Vice President achieved a lot including the creation of GRA as an autonomous body which was a reform package put together in 2009.
“The criteria he gave to my boss, the late Amissah-Arthur, he has the question she should answer those same questions, is it not fair? He should answer the same question. He is not coming to a debate.
“So is he (Dr. Bawumia) going back to that era to have a debate? So he has the questions. He should pull out the questions and answer them. You remember he spoke about the fundamentals. The fundamentals don’t vary from one period to the other,” Mr. Terkper stated.
He continued: “Let me remind His Excellency that the Fiscal Responsibility Act which he championed including the oversight board said we should do a deficit of five percent. But they are at 12 percent if you add everything they are about 15 percent.”
