Nana Frema Busia, a daughter of Ghana's former prime minister, has criticised Nana Akufo-Addo's administration, calling him corrupt and obsolete.

The daughter of the Kofi Abrefa Busia, a man whose ideals the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) claims its principles are founded on, has written a critical opinion piece calling out president Akufo-Addo and finance minister Ken Ofori-Atta for threatening Ghana's peace and prosperity.

"He [Akufo-Addo] has become obsolete and abdicated to a devious Ken Ofori Atta, who is a dangerous threat to the economy and livelihoods, operating like a demon in a white shirt while Mr. President is enjoying the ceremonial trappings in the country they have bankrupted," she wrote in an article published by Angel News on January 26, 2023.

"The debt exchange 'haircut' is not constructive, it is a destructive, conscienceless illegality and compulsive mass thievery," she slammed in the strongly-worded article.

In her view both the president and his cousin, the finance minister, belong in jail.

Touching briefly on the National Cathedral controversy, she called the controversial project "Addo-Danquah Tourism cathedral" and accused the finance minister and the president of using it to steal state funds while the Office of the Special Prosecutor looks on. In her view, that office is a sham.

Titled "Addo’s bastardised Christianity and criminal governance," Nana Frema Busia said:

Ofori-Atta must be stopped from being a "dictatorial" default president

She has appealed to Ghanaians to stop stopped Ofori-Atta from running the country because he was not the one Ghanaians voted for. In her view, the finance minister's actions is merely a "dictatorship by proxy". This, she fears, is derailing the impressive gains Ghana has made in its democratic journey.

"Ghana is in a self-inflicted crisis with hoodlums in charge practising crooked governance with all systems broken," she lamented.
