Elvis Afriyie Ankrah, a member of the NDC Manifesto Committee, has highlighted a significant increase in Ghana's public debt, which rose from GHC126 billion in 2016 to GHC740 billion in 2024. Speaking on Akoma 87.9fm’s M’abato3 program with Sir John on September 10, Ankrah criticized the current NPP administration, labeling the economic conditions as dire.

He argued that the substantial debt increase of GH₵620 billion reflects poor economic management by the NPP government, leading to diminished investor confidence.“No investor is currently willing to engage with the country,” Ankrah stated.

He urged Ghanaians to reject the NPP in the upcoming December elections, accusing the party of lacking innovative solutions.Ankrah promised that the NDC would work to restore investor confidence by reducing numerous taxes and continuing the positive developments of the past.
