“Life was easier under the NDC government compared to today” – Mahama

The National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) 2024 flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, has criticized the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) eight-year rule and held the current administration accountable for Ghana’s economic woes and general hardship.

Mr. Mahama claimed that the NPP had mismanaged the country’s resources, causing serious setbacks.

Speaking to supporters during a mini-rally in Kyebi, in the Eastern Region’s Abuakwa South Constituency, Mr. Mahama emphasized that the government’s poor leadership is directly to blame for the country’s economic difficulties.

He maintained that rising expenses and falling living conditions are proof that the NPP is failing to handle important national concerns, and that Ghanaians are suffering the most from inefficient governance.

“The NPP government’s performance over the past eight years has been one of retrogression. Life was easier under the NDC government compared to today,” Mr. Mahama remarked.

He continued that: “Ghanaians have seen the consequences of misplaced priorities and poor leadership. It’s time for a change that truly prioritises the people.”

The former president contrasted the economic challenges faced under the current administration with the relative ease of life during his time in office.

“Money that could buy a meal during the NDC administration cannot get you the same meal now. Things have been tough under the NPP government,” he stated.

During his five-day Eastern Region campaign tour, the NDC flagbearer urged Kyebi residents to oppose the NPP’s promises and back a change of government.

He emphasized that the country’s economic stability and much-needed prosperity could only be restored by a change in leadership.

“A change is needed. “The hope and prosperity that Ghanaians deserve can only be restored by a change, as the current government has failed,” Mr. Mahama stated.
