Former President John Mahama has sharply criticized the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), accusing them of poor governance that has plunged Ghana into economic turmoil.
During the National Democratic Congress (NDC) manifesto launch on August 24, 2024, Mahama labelled the current NPP administration as the “biggest political scam that has been pulled on Ghanaians since our independence.”
Mahama argued that the NPP’s leadership has inflicted severe hardship, state capture, and mismanagement on the country, leading to widespread suffering. He condemned the administration for decimating Ghana’s democracy, destroying livelihoods, and pushing millions below the poverty line.
“The NPP administration must exit office. Your vote on December 7 will end the tyranny, cronyism, corruption, and hardship, and pave the way for the vision, experience, and trustworthiness that I, John Dramani Mahama, will restore to the Flagstaff House,” he declared.
He criticized President Nana Akufo-Addo and Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, claiming that they have failed to deliver on their promises.
“President Akufo-Addo is the president Ghana never got. And indeed, I dare say that his much-touted economic whiz kid, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, is also the economic messiah Ghana never got,” Mahama added.
