According to him, NDC is Ghana’s major problem as Bokoharam is Nigeria’s major problem.
“NDC who have formed a committee we won’t work with them. When you go to Nigeria their main problem is Boko Haram, when you go to Iran it is ISIS. When you come to Ghana it is NDC, so we have coronavirus plus coronavirus so it will not work. The Ghana coronavirus is more deadly than the new one.” He fumed.
“You see, NDC has been Ghana’s problem. The NDC who couldn’t buy an ambulance with all their experts. They bought Aboboyaa not ambulances. This people, where were their experts when they were saying we should evacuate our people in China? Who gave them that advice?” added.
Reacting to a comparison between the Ebola outbreak and the COVID 19 Abronye said it is ignorance to compare the two.
“Ebola was African epidemic, corona is worldwide so the NDC should stop comparing the two. Those who agree with the comparison don’t know anything.” He explained.
