The incident has sparked mockery among Ghanaians and the opposition of the Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s digital agenda which they claim is desperate move which is not effective. Dr Bawumia was reportedly unable to pass through an E-Gate at the Kotoka International Airport has sparked widespread discussion.
Critics have likened this to the controversy surrounding President Nana Akufo-Addo’s use of the Ghana Card during its launch, alleging that a “fake card” had been created for the occasion. These moments have been used by opponents to question the credibility of government-led technological initiatives.
Supporters of the administration, however, argue that such glitches are part of the challenges associated with implementing new technology and should not overshadow the overall benefits of such innovations. They emphasize that efforts like the E-Gates and the Ghana Card system represent significant strides toward digitizing and modernizing Ghana’s systems, even if occasional setbacks occur.
