This statement comes after Achaeampong blamed Bawumia for the state of the economy during the tenure of former President Akufo-Addo. Tonto emphasised that Achaeampong’s leadership as Minister of Agriculture cannot be overlooked, as the sector holds a crucial part of Ghana’s economy. Tonto further cautioned against blame games and urged Acheampong to focus on why he is the best to lead the NPP for the 2028 elections. That is why it is imperative that they focus on why the best are to lead. You cannot blame or denigrate your competitor as a failure and then later turn around to campaign for that person,” Tonto remarked.
