Kwaku Kwarteng Explains the Ponzi Scheme Economy & Why The NPP Is The Best Solution For Ghana 

Mr. Kwarteng, God bless you. You're an objective, patriotic and honest son of Ghana. More grease to your elbow.

This man needs to be president. He is the best.

It is too dangerous a situation to play politics with.

Wow! I didn't know we have one honest man left in politics today especially within the NPP party today!

Any right thinking person who loves this country won’t disagree with this MP. He’s absolutely right

God blessed Hon. Kwarteng for speaking truth to power

Spending money recklessly and crashing our economy must be a serious crime and one for which politicians should be held accountable for! We didn’t force them as a nation to come and say they can do things they can’t - they must be punished!!! NPP leaders who spearheaded the cause of these actions that have crippled our economy and country .

If Ghana to have 10 representatives of the type of hon. Kwaku Kwarteng in both sides Ghana will reach far in the shortest possible time

We need such MP like Kwaku Kwarteng, he is the man of intergrity.But his party does not like the truth

This man is a smart politician and he’s trying to place smart. He is seeing that the grounds is not right for both he and his party and succinctly taking himself out of the PONZI Scheme. He was the chairman of the finance committee and never authored a word

He’s absolutely right! The paradigm shift that is required to turn out fortunes around is what he’s talking about, spend within your means! Even IMF has been telling us this. He’s honest and has integrity! He clearly loves this country. He’s not saying NDC is better, he’s just saying the political class need to do things differently

If Bawumia had adopted this strategy, he would have won the votes of the working class hands down.

Go and read the agyapa Dea book which was launched on 2019 , you will understand why this government came to power and why the country is sinking.. Go and read all pages and stop giving us silly lecturing...

I agreed with this mp comment and I respect him for that. continue speaking like that from now on but I totally disagree with you saying it only NPP who can develop this country because, apart from Dr.Kwame nkrumah, it is only General Achimpong and PNDC/ NDC regime has a monumental project in this country. Because this criminal Government has borrowed more than any government since our independent but nothing to show to pay back our debt.

This is contradictory in all respects

Please call a spade a spade. Your government has a bloated appointees. NPP government has borrowed than any government in Ghana 's history but little to show for. NPP has failed us big time and we have learnt our lessons. We will vent our anger on 7th Dec.

Fair points, but it doesn't address the reality of the state capture. They've turned from just taking loans internationally, to buying state assets amongst themselves. That is a strong deviation from the borrowing norm of the political class he spoke of.

This guy is equally a ponzi politician. He can't call a spade a spade. Akkufo addo and bawumia have failed and have taken ghana back 50 years period.

Despite running away from questions, I hail you. This is what makes a president.

I THOUGHT HE COMING WITH NATIONAL AGENDA BUT HE SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF NPP

There must be a law that punishes leaders who do these kind of harm to our country. I’m in Benin 🇧🇯 and come and see leadership!! Come and see proper planning of cities and cleanliness 😮😮 Cotonou has no open gutters . You our useless leaders must be bused to come and see for yourselves!! Sad to be Ghanaian 😢😢😢

Is funny how they mess up so badly and 4 months later he came and still say they are the best party to bring solutions😂😂😂. Tired of poor political strategy🤦🏾‍♀️. Bring the solutions NOW not next year. I listened to the whole interview and sounds like he was brought to save NPP.

This guy should have contested for president and he will have won our hearts as a country! We need honest people in Ghanaian politics! This is the only thing missing in Ghana and we need to encourage it!

How can something meant for internal consumption suddenly be a communication to the political class in general. This is just face saving and generalization knowing that his caution statement has gone public. What was his comment during the power crisis during the previous government. Did he say it was a failure from the political class? Smh

Dear Ghanaians dont fall for this well-calculated diversionary tactic, he was in Ghana when the likes of Adongo were crying for the same thing and never authored a word. Why now that your ship is sinking?

Hats off, Kwaku Kwarteng

The gentleman should have been the president for life; it’s not about NDC or NPP. This is Ghana ooooooo

This is a gem right there. I hope he stays the course. He really speaking for lot of folks especially the independents.

He'll never say they've done worst with all that they've borrowed in just 7 years. #ashantispunishthemforgh

Why did you not accept the government appointment to change our fortune... You were to be a Finance Minister

Too little too late. Please don’t involve everybody it’s your NPP alone you said you have the men where were the men?

This is a huge problem, the guys over there are playing politics than the man speaking on phone, what he is saying is right, but they will sideline him, within weeks

A ponzi economy indeed, that’s truth to power!

The NPP should be BANNED and another Political Party formed with a new NAME. The hidden fact is that the Akyems do not like the Ashantis. Kwaku Kwarteng is mad for saying the NPP can solve the economic problems it has created.

Because of this stand, the npp took you off leadership on parliament, yet you refused to call them out. You're right here, but start from your own corner.

But when the likes of you and Bawumia where calling Mahama incompetent. The Solution was Competent EMT. What happened.

He is evading the question and you let him, Mr Journalist. He is evading the question ( what could your party have done to salvage the situation? ). You let him waltz away.

Yes, he needs to accuse his own party as well because he is talking bare economics. The fellow is right. We hate the truth!

"We should have departed from the path we inherited", which means you didn't depart, yet you deny this all the time.

I would have believed this MP if not for the fact that Ghana has nothing to show for all the money borrowed under this administration. If we had used those funds to shift from taxation to production as Bawumia promised, perhaps the dividends from such investments could be used to service the loans. Unfortunately that’s not the case; borrowed money is still looted like there’s no tomorrow.

You are talking as if you guys are ruling with NDC. Just concentrate on your mandate and stop complaining. You have been part since day one. Stop complaining masa.

Boss, keep the party out! The fools will misunderstand you. Well done for now!

I say this is Hypocrisy for the last eight year this man kept quiet why how. U this man was in the boat with them enjoying every thing with them now that we won’t u to join us in the muddy water now u won’t us to come to consensus hmmm Ghana politics

I find it very amusing how this MP just realized NPP is running Ghana’s economy like a ponzy scheme just 4 months to elections. The 8 years hasn’t been enough for them to try fixing issues

How much money has the CRIMINAL AKUFO ADDO and his family borrowed using Ghana's name and have stolen thae money? Criminal NPP government.

Masa MP: you have raised some very important questions but you have to understand that 90% of the borrowings under Akuffo Addo and mate has really plunged us into this situation. How can NPP alone borrowed 13 billion dollars Euros bond alone- I stand to be corrected. Can you explain that???

Just answer the damn questions

Africa....insincerity is your problem.

Too many contradictions in his delivery. From, it was meant for internal consumption, to I am talking to both NDC and NPP. Confusion Galore. It will not work.

Concert

Mr Kwarteng was honest with his previous comments but he is trying to absort previously administrations to it to avoid the anger coming from party supporters. You power said we should try them because mahama was incompetent. Now you want to blame your inability to fix the economy to previous mahama's. We need solutions not to tell as the problems.

You should resign. If you feel so strongly about your Government's handling affair then resign.

It is not cumulative; it is down to the mismanagement of the economy by the Addo Danquah-Bawumia administration. And this is what gets me all the time. Nothing would prevent you from going to opposition.

The matter chop hot 😂

You still even bring that argument of external factors?? Charley this man is just like those he is condemning . He has seen the wind of change and trying to talk differently . Kai ! Not because of something extraordinarily wrong done by the government?? You saw all the wrong of Mahama condemned his loan takings and shortcomings and you came and did worse and so to save face you must drag him along in your failure , is that what you mean ??

Tell them what you mean by macro economic indicators. How much are we producing and ecporting? What percentage of our consumption is fed by imports? Tell them and forget about arresting the cedi.

You are asking for too mush honesty from selfish crooks. Yes, you are right - it is not a partisan issue. They are both bogus and bereft of ideas.

Such a lazy journalism! You allowed him to spin, spin without countering him with facts.

This interview shouldn't have gone beyond 5 mins. So much bs

Bro this particular administration has made only bad decisions financially that’s why we are where we are now

A tuber of yam is 50/60 cedis. And you keep lying about everything.

Another npp guy .. who want to deceive Ghanaians small … we have heard enough of your barks… y’all would come and eat and go

What was our debt from independence to 2016

See caption Joy news will give (ponzi scheme economy) meanwhile you are the same people who will complain when NDC come back to power

All contracts are now sole sourced with inflated figures. And you are talking nonsense

Masa, your argument will carry more weight if you keep the party out. Keep talking economics. If Ghanaians are so backward ss to come and fight you as party partisans, let them!

Nonsense

Nonsense! Mahama left the country with $ 1 under 4 cedis. This boy has no idea of what he’s talking about. People ignore his nonsense. He is totally being disingenuous!

This stupid talks must be stopped... mumu people get access to rule us ... kwaisaaa fuorrr
