WISDOM K.E HAMMOND 6 days ago

The votes by Ghanaians on 7th December that kicked out the NPP government could be summed up as the effect of the SAD 13 SINS Nana Addo and his NPP government committed against Ghanaians while in power.

Check out the 13 sins. At least one of these forced you to angrily vote against the NPP apart from their open arrogance and constant scandals that become a daily norm.

SIN No. 1: The National Cathedral: Nana Addo forced it on Ghanaians, claiming he made a promise to God and must fulfil it even when almost everyone opted against it. He proceeded to dig the most expensive hole in the world.

SIN No. 2: The E-levy: He introduced the e-levy and abolished road tolls; that was massively protested against but as usual, he listened to no one. They shamelessly got a cake for it to taunt Ghanaians.

SIN No. 3:Betting Tax: He forced this tax on the youth and when they vowed to vote the NPP out, it did not tickle them.

SIN No. 4: They weakened the cedi and were not ready to accept responsibility. Nana Addo took the dollar rate from 4 cedis to 18 cedis and back to 17 cedis and then to 15.30. They started praising themselves for the marginal fall.

SIN No. 5:Refusal to sack Ken Ofori Atta as the finance minister when the economy reached it’s critical stage.

SIN No. 6:When he made them arrest 54 protestors for protesting for clean water and stopping illegal mining.

SIN No. 7:Cecilia Dapaah’s money issue ($1M and €300k at home).

SIN No. 8: When they got an android version of Hon Adwoa Safo during the passing of e-levy

SIN No. 9: When Nana Addo unveiled his own statue. The statue of incompetence and wickedness.

SIN No. 10: Import duty and fuel prices skyrocketed.

SIN No. 11: Akuffo Addo’s daughter was awarded a dubious contract of $38 million to supply ambulance parts.

SIN No. 12: When he and Ursula Owusu forced MTN to increase their data charges. Ghanaians did an online protest against it; they ignored everyone.

SIN No. 13: The introduction of the Covid 19 tax

Moral Lessons For The John Mahama Led NDC Goverment

Moral lessons that can be derived from the actions and inactions of the NPP government under Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo which the John Mahama Led NDC Goverment and all its appointees must learn fast and now.

Accountability and Responsibility: Leaders should be accountable for their actions and the economic conditions they influence. The weakening of the Ghanaian cedi and the refusal to acknowledge or address this issue reflect a lack of responsibility, teaching that leaders should be ready to take responsibility for economic policies and their outcomes.

Transparency and Public Consent: The National Cathedral project, where public opinion was seemingly ignored, highlights the importance of transparency and obtaining public consent for major projects that involve public funds. This underscores the lesson that leaders should not force initiatives upon the populace without broad support or clear reasoning.

Listening to the Public: The introduction of taxes like the E-levy, Betting Tax, and the Covid-19 tax, despite public protests, shows a failure to listen to the populace. A moral lesson here is that governance should be responsive to the needs and concerns of the people, involving them in the decision-making process.

Avoiding Arrogance: The open arrogance and the constant scandals suggest a lesson on humility and the dangers of hubris in leadership. Leaders should remain grounded and avoid actions or behaviors that alienate or belittle the public.

Corruption and Integrity: Issues like Cecilia Dapaah’s money, the dubious contract to Akufo-Addo’s daughter, and other allegations of corruption underline the necessity for integrity and vigilance against corruption. Moral governance requires leaders to maintain high standards of ethical behavior.

Public Resource Management: The misuse or poor management of public funds, as exemplified by several of these “sins,” teaches the importance of prudent and wise management of national resources for the benefit of all citizens, not just a few.

Respect for Democratic Processes: Actions like the arrest of protesters for demonstrating against water quality or illegal mining illustrate a lack of respect for democratic rights. A key lesson is the importance of upholding democratic norms, including the right to peaceful protest and free speech.

These lessons collectively indicate that effective leadership and leaders should prioritize the welfare of the citizens, engage with them transparently, and uphold the principles of democracy, integrity, and accountability.
