Minister calls for an end to politics of deceit

Mr Yaw Barimah, Minister of Works and Housing, has called on politicians to offer constructive criticisms that would promote the development of the country.

“This politics of lies and deceit do not send us anywhere but rather soil the hard won reputation of Ghanaians,” he said at a regional rally at Jirapa to climax a series of Peoples’ Assemblies held in the Upper West Region.

Mr Barimah recalled that before the general election there was a deceitful campaign that the government of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) would repatriate all aliens but after one year it was rather building strong ties with neighbouring countries.

He appealed to the people to be patient for the NPP to fulfil its campaign promises gradually. Mr Barimah, who is the Member of Parliament for Koforidua said the government would organise credit facilities for farmers and businessmen and women to boost their enterprises.

“Former governments were giving you fish, but we shall teach you how to fish to sell and reserve some for your families” he added.
