Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has made a passionate appeal to Ghanaians to vote against the incumbent New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the forthcoming general elections slated for December 7.
According to Mahama, the NPP government, under the leadership of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has mismanaged Ghana’s economy and brought about widespread economic hardship, leaving Ghanaians in a state of financial distress.
He emphasised that the only way to bring about meaningful change and relief for the people is by voting out the NPP in the upcoming polls.
Mahama delivered this message during a political rally in the Savannah Region, as part of his nationwide campaign tour aimed at engaging with voters and presenting the NDC’s vision for Ghana.
Mahama did not mince words in his criticism of the government, accusing the NPP of economic incompetence and a lack of accountability.
He pointed out that the NPP has failed to accept responsibility for the economic challenges facing the nation, despite the obvious signs of mismanagement and decline in key sectors of the economy.
The NDC’s flagbearer pointed to the depreciation of the Cedi and the prices of cement and urged Ghanaians to reject the NPP
“This is the government that does not accept its fault. Despite all that has happened in this country, they don’t accept that they have created hardship. They don’t accept that they have mismanaged the economy. They still go and sit on the radio and say, we are the better managers of the economy.
“Better managers of the economy, you took the dollar from GH¢4 to $1 to GH¢17 to $1 and you say you are better managers of the economy. You took cement from GH¢24 per bag to GH¢110 per bag and you say you are better managers of the economy.”
