Dennis Miracles Aboagye, a notable figure in the political landscape, has criticized the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for employing what he calls “lies and propaganda” as they seek the mandate of the Ghanaian people. He pointed out that Fifi Kwetey, who served as a propagandist during the John Agyekum Kufuor administration, is now the General Secretary of the NDC, and the party appears to be using the same strategies.
Aboagye emphasized the distinction between good and bad leadership, stating, “A good leader, amid crisis, would work together with the people, drive the people, and get them out of the challenges, whereas a bad leader does not boast of such traits.” He accused the NDC of exploiting the difficulties faced by the country to gain power, only to fail in delivering solutions once in office. “Whenever NDC is in opposition, they ride on the ills at the time, misrepresent and exaggerate them, and build on the emotions of the people so that they can get power, and when they get power, the consequences were what we witnessed in 2016,” he remarked.
Looking ahead to the 2024 elections, Aboagye warned, “I can tell you on authority that the NDC will employ the same old, obnoxious lies and fabrications as the 2024 elections get close. We should, therefore, be careful not to fall for their antics and stale propaganda as we approach this year’s elections.”
He urged the electorate to support and vote for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), specifically endorsing Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia as the flagbearer. “Let us all support and vote for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to take Ghana to the next chapter in our development trajectory,” he appealed.
