In a recent parliamentary session, Isaac Adongo, the MP for Bolgatanga Central, expressed regret for drawing a comparison between Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia and Manchester United’s centre-back, Harry Maguire.
Previously, Adongo had likened the two figures, suggesting they were both not making significant contributions to their respective jobs.
However, during his apology delivered in Parliament on Tuesday, Adongo acknowledged Maguire’s improved performance for Manchester United and emphasised that the football defender now played a more impactful role for his club than Dr. Bawumia did for the nation.
Adongo criticized the Vice President, alleging ongoing mismanagement of the country’s economy and a subsequent reliance on the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for financial assistance.
“I must express my sincere apologies to Harry Maguire for hastily comparing my esteemed colleague Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to him. Today, Maguire has undergone a transformative journey in football, emerging as a key player for Manchester United. In contrast, our ‘Maguire’ is currently navigating the corridors of the IMF with a cup in hand,” Adongo stated during his parliamentary address.
