My marks should be 72% not 48% – Akufo-Addo disagrees with IMANI

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has rejected an assessment by policy think tank, IMANI Africa, which has scored the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) 48 per cent on fulfilment of promises since assumption of office.

In its latest IMANIFesto report released on Wednesday, the think tank analysed 510 promises made in the NPP’s 2016 manifesto and scored them based on fully implemented, partially completed and unfulfilled promises.

Mr Akufo-Addo says the marks by the independent think tank does not reflect the true picture of his government.

At a media encounter on Wednesday, Mr Akufo-Addo said: “I disagree with the 48 per cent assessment”.

“We have figured that we are working with a figure of 72% and not 48% in terms of the promises that have been delivered and those that are in the course of being delivered. So, we have a fundamental disagreement on the figures,” he explains.

In his opinion “our assessment is the accurate one” and not the figure released by IMANI Africa
