President Akufo-Addo says the 1992 Constitution entrusts executive powers into the hands of the president.
To that end, he said “the buck stops with the president. He or she takes the blame for the challenges.”
The President said this on the floor of Parliament while delivering the State of the Nation address on Tuesday February 27.
He emphasised that, as the leader, he or she assumes the blame for the difficulties faced by the nation.
This assertion comes amid recent remarks by Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, who clarified that the Economic Management Team (EMT), under his leadership, lacks decision-making powers and serves solely in an advisory capacity to cabinet.
