Akwasi Oppong-Fosu, a former Minister of Local government and member of parliament for Wassa Amenfi East, has stressed that the opposition National Democratic Congress and John Dramani Mahama are not scared of the ruling New Patriotic Party.
He claims that Ghanaians will have a hard time putting their faith in whoever emerges as the party’s presidential candidate because of the amount of incompetence and corruption that has marked the current administration’s period of government.
In an interview with Kofi Cula, Host of Political Affairs on UK-based Omega FM, Mr. Oppong-Fosu said, “None of the presidential aspirants poses a threat to the NDC. With their failed leadership and the mess they have created, they would rather pose a threat to the country.
“Touting the performance of the NPP government as unprecedented by Vice President Bawumia does not surprise anyone. He lives in his own bubble. He believes in his own lies, and that is a problem and problem for his own party, and it is not surprising his contenders are appealing to delegates not to vote for any liar.”
“People are born into families, not political parties, as some claim… Until we renew our mindset on leadership purposes, abuse of power, corruption, and nepotism will persist to the disadvantage of the very people who defend the perpetrators,” he stated.
