A former aspirant for the position of National Organiser within the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Henry Osei Akoto, has launched an attack on the Akufo-Addo-led government.
In an interview with GhanaWeb, Mr Osei Akoto characterized the present administration as a malevolent government solely responsible for the suffering of the Ghanaian people.
According to him, since assuming power, the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia-led government has exacerbated the challenges faced by ordinary Ghanaians.
“The Nana Akufo-Addo/ Bawumia government is a satanic government that has come to ruin this country… talk of all the promises that this people gave us.
“They have done the opposite of everything that they told Ghanaians; and worsened the lives of Ghanaians. Now if you compare Ghanaians, our lives before the 2016 election and now, everyone in Ghana would bear with me that this NPP government, they have ruined our lives. They have turned our lives upside down,” he said.
A prominent figure within the NDC, Mr Osei Akoto, dismissed the notion put forth by proponents of the current government that they are poised to secure power for a third consecutive term, often referred to as “break the 8.”
He cautioned Ghanaians not to be deceived by the NPP again.
In disbelief, he questioned the idea of “breaking the 8,” expressing uncertainty about the supporters who would endorse such a move considering the perceived negative impact of the government’s actions on the lives of Ghanaians.
“They are scammers. They have turned our 6 into 9 and our 9 into 6. This people should not be trusted,” he said.
“In fact, they talk of breaking the 8, sometimes, I wonder where they are going to break that 8 from. I don’t know the kind of people who are going to support them in breaking that 8 with all that they have done to Ghanaians,” he added.
