“The more Bawumia speaks the more questions about his seriousness and sincerity lingers. By the way, has he completed the toilets he promised the Kayaye?” he wrote.
The academic made these remarks while reacting to a promise by the vice president to introduce a card that would be used for public transportation, in a viral video.
Dr Bawumia could be heard saying in that video, from a recent event, that the government would by the end of 2024, introduce a card for public transportation, similar to the United Kingdom’s oyster card.
“When you to England, they have an oyster card that you travel with. Ghana is going to have an ouster card before the end of this year,” he said.
