Feature Article of Wednesday, 14 September 2016Columnist: Dr Dacosta AboagyeBawumia needs to be commended not insultedDr Mahamudu BawumiaRunning mate of the New Patriotic Party, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia sought to do a comparative trend analysis when he analysed Ghana’s economy under the National Democratic Congress (NDC). Dr Bawumia was also right to point that the strong concrete of increasing economic growth under the NPP era aided Prof E.A Mills’ economic performance of GDP growths. I think that IMANI got it wrong because Dr. Bawumia did not forge the data but used it in the context of his analysis. Data can be evaluated in many contexts and as long as Bawumia did not forge the data proves IMANI’s claim of “unfair manipulation” wrong. Dr Bawumia should be commended for adding a new paradigm of lectures in our Ghanaian election campaigns.
