John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has voiced confidence in the party’s capacity to solve the country’s economic difficulties if it wins the next elections.
He underlined the caliber of the guys in the NDC, claiming that they are well-equipped to improve the country’s prospects.
During a courtesy visit to the Gbewaa Palace in Yendi, Mahama emphasized the importance of honesty in governance, stating that Ghana needs a government committed to transparency and truthfulness.
I addition to discussing wider national concerns, the former president told the Overlord of Dagbon, Yaa Naa Abubakari Mahama II, that if the NDC takes power, it will prioritize fixing the Yendi water crisis.
“Today, our country Ghana is in crisis, we all know the hardships, pains, and sufferings our people are going through. So the elections of 2024, this year is one of the most crucial elections in the history of Ghana. We need a competent, selfless, honest, truthful government that will come and lead Ghana out of the mess into which it has been thrown by the Akufo-Addo-Bawumia government.
“I’m confident that NDC has the men and women to turn our fortunes around and make Ghana stand back on its feet.”
The Yaa Naa, on his part, urged the NDC flagbearer to run a clean campaign free of insults and name-calling, as this would safeguard the country’s peace.
Speaking on behalf of the Yaa Naa, Naa Jacob Mahama stated, “I’d want to congratulate you and Alhaji Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the vice president, for a clean campaign thus far. He was here last year, and I advised him to conduct a clean campaign with you, free of name-calling and animosity.
“Today I’m giving you the same advice, you have no other brother besides you. Being on the opposite of the political divide does not make you enemies, it rather enriches the politics of the family.
He further admonished him not to hesitate to reshuffle his appointees when the need arises to ensure they deliver.
“When you get the nod from Ghanaians, don’t shy away from reshuffling your team to get the right ones on board by merit and competence.”
The NDC flagbearer’s visit to the palace forms part of his ‘Building Ghana Tour’ in the Northern Region,
