"Good day vice president Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, respectfully you forgot to tell us how digitilization has protected the dollar you claim to have arrested and detained in police custody with the key in your pocket. It is important to remind you that businesses are suffering, drivers and Kayaye's are suffering. Finally I will like to know how digitiliazation has reduced the price of goods at the market for the ordinary Ghanaian, just being a citizen, not a spectator."
