- Glover argued that the current government has a responsibility to protect the gains made by the previous administration

Titus Glover, who is a member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), praised the Nana Addo-led administration for what he described as setting the stage for stabilisation of the Ghanaian economy.
While appearing as a guest on Asempa FM, the politician claimed that former President Nana Akufo-Addo had put in place various measures and effected policies to catalyse economic recovery after a difficult period.
He proceeded to claim that the cedi had began showing signs that it would rally in a positive trajectory before the NPP was unseated, which he used as a basis to back his hypothesis.
Based on this argument, he said, the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) ought to acknowledge the NPP's role in the economy's recovery and protect the gains.

Speaking further, he warned that the economic gains achieved so far could be eroded if the NDC government is not firm in its leadership and doesn't institute the correct policies.
He claimed that the NDC has an almost fiduciary responsibility to ensure it builds on the work done by Nana Akufo Addo.
