NDC must shift focus from NPP criticism to fulfilling campaign promises

Congratulations to the new National Democratic Congress (NDC) government on their return to power.

However, I am surprised to see party spokespersons, members, MPs, and supporters still blaming the previous Akufo-Addo-led government as of January 13, 2025.

Rather than dwelling on the past, shouldn’t the NDC government focus on delivering the campaign promises that secured their victory in the election?

It’s time to shift from criticism to action.

I urge you, President John Mahama, to instruct your party leaders to prioritize fulfilling their promises to Ghanaians. We are more interested in seeing tangible improvements in our lives than in hearing criticisms of the previous government.

Let’s focus on building a better future for Ghana. The people have spoken, and now it’s time to demonstrate your commitment to their welfare.

We are eager to see progress on key issues such as economic growth, education, healthcare, and infrastructure development.

Ghanaians deserve a brighter future, and I believe your administration has the ability to deliver it.
