The MP in a Twitter post said the Ghanaian taxpayer-paid US$18,000 an hour for the President to put up an unimpressive performance in the interview.
Nana Addo during the interview justified the government's introduction of the electronic transaction levy (E-levy) and collection of the tax.
He has expressed confidence in the government's strategies aimed at reviving the ailing economy.
According to him, the government's strategies will offer the country the chance to recover from the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
He stated that "In Ghana, the recovery programme we have is very credible and that is what is going to give us the opportunity to come out of this period a stronger economy, and it is that future we are looking at.
