Clear off for a competent government to take over if you can’t rule – Ofosu Ampofo to NPP
Chairman of the National Democratic Party (NDC) has asked the
Akufo-Addo-led government to confess to miserably failing and clear off
for a more competent government to rule if they are overwhelmed.
According to him, the current government has failed to fulfill their campaign promises, including the pledge to fix ‘dumsor’.
He said it’s time for Ghanaians to give a clear message to government
that ‘enough is enough’ especially because they have failed to show
interest and sensitivity to people in this country.”
“Nana Addo is not showing any interest and sensitivity to the people of
this country. He promised that he will protect the purse of this country
and let us see the reckless spending that are going on. He is
gallivanting all around chartering aircraft when the good people of this
country, even common water to drink has become a problem. We are still
experiencing ‘dumsor’, unemployment is on the rise and several other
things.” He said
“We want to send a clear signal that the time has come for Ghanaians to
be citizens as he indeed indicated we are not just going to be
spectators but to be active citizens and send a clear message to the
Akufo-Addo/ Baumia government that enough is enough and that is why you
are seeing the people pouring into the streets. “
“… If they cannot rule, if they cannot exercise the mandate that the
good people of this country has given them they should just clear off
for a more competent and humane government to take over the affairs of
this country. He added
The chairman was speaking at the Kum Ye Preko demo held to show
displeasure about the recent hardship and insecurity in the country.
The demonstration organized by group Members of the Coalition for Social
Justice has many others from all walks of life participating to
register their displeasure over what they term as severe hardship and
insecurity in the country.
Various groups who joined the demonstration include Minority caucus in
Parliament, the Greater Accra Market Women Association, the Concerned
Drivers Union, True Drivers Union, Free Media Vanguard, the Coalition
for National Sovereignty, disgruntled MenzGold customers and unpaid
customers of Gold Coast Fund Management among others.
