Ablakwa complains about late start of 2022 budget reading
17th November 2021
The North Tongu MP, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has complained about the late start of the 2022 budget reading.
MPs expected the budget reading to start at 10:00 am but like in past years, the budget reading will start over an hour late.
“MPs are asked to report for the Budget presentation at 10am & more than 2 hours after, we are still waiting in our seats,” he said in a Facbook post.
“I guess in our Republic, time is not money & productivity has a different definition,” the MP added.
The Finance Minister eventually started the budget presentation three hours late at 1:00 pm.
This is not the first time a budget presentation and events like State of the Nation addresses have been delayed.
