NPP has Nothing to Show Seven Years after Promising Heaven on Earth

Joyce Bawah Mogtari, an aide to the flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), says there is nothing to show for the seven years the NPP has been in office. She was expecting to see some magic and development in Ghana for a government that said it had men.

Also, for a government that promised to fix every malaise plaguing Ghana, she expected every aspect of the economy to be healed, but that does not seem to be the case.

To Bawah Mogtari, the NPP has been a disappointment to the people of Ghana and should be kicked out of office.

“We have the men, we have a solid team, we don’t even remember the names of the other team, we can fix every malaise plaguing Ghana ! Seven years later, they have absolutely nothing to show! We have the men’ mantra ”

Former President John Mahama has criticised the New Patriotic Party (NPP) over how the economy is being managed after touting that they had ‘the men’.

According to him, the NPP lacks the credibility to be trusted to turn around the economy.

During the 2012 and 2016 electoral campaigns, the then-presidential candidate Akufo-Addo that his team had the human resource to develop Ghana.

“In 2016, our colleagues, the NPP, told a lot of lies about us. They labelled us as incompetent, and they came with a lot of big and sweet promises to the people of Ghana and use that to persuade people that there will be a better government than we were.

“And so the people of Ghana tried them by voting for them. They said they should try them, ‘try me and see’.

And that was a mistake the people of Ghana made because we have come to realise that after all, we have the men, we have the men. They were station boys, they don’t know anything,’” Mr Mahama said.
