Minority Leader, Haruna Iddrisu, cannot understand why Ghanaians are quiet while, according to him, President Nana Akufo-Addo wreaks havoc on the economy.

YEN.com.gh reported previously that in his view, Ghanaians heavily criticised former President John Mahama even though he did far less than what the current president is doing.
