Leader of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and President of Ghana, His Excellency Nana Addo Danquah Akuffo Addo has stated that former president of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama left him very little cash in the national coffers.
He passed such comments while speaking to workers of Ghana Railway Company Limited (GRWCL) in Tema. President Akuffo Addo also assured that his government is working hard to fix things.
“…unfortunately, I did not have a rich father, so, I didn’t get a big inheritance,” the President said.
“When I came, there was very little in the coffers, I’m trying to build it up now, so, you have to bear with me.”
The President visited the GRWCL during the last day of his three-day tour of the Greater Accra Region on Wednesday.
He called on the railway workers to give their all in order to help the government rebuild the deteriorating railway sector.
He said, although “the British left us a functioning railway system, we didn’t look after it, and we allowed it to deteriorate.”
“For this part of the 21st century, a major responsibility is on you, on me, my successors, to rebuild the railway infrastructure in our country,” Nana Addo added.
