Flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama believes that if the level of bribery and corruption under the current government had happened under the NDC, there would have been a coup in Ghana by now.
According to him, things are the way they are because people who are supposed to ensure accountability and say it as it is to the government are all hypocrites who would rather sing the government’s praises.
“I must be honest with you; if the bribery and corruption happening under this government happened under the NDC, we would have had a coup in Ghana. The level of thievery going on is worse, but people—a lot of people are hypocrites; they do not see the wrong going on in Ghana,” he told a charged crowd in Accra.
John Dramani Mahama expressed his optimism that the NDC would win the 2024 elections but assured them that people who are silent about the wrongs of this government will suddenly gain their voices back.
“I know NDC will win the 2024 elections. However, when we win, people who have toothaches and cannot speak against the ills of the current government will start to get their voices back. Hypocrisy is what is pulling this nation back. If we see the truth, if it is black, it is black, if it is white it is white, it doesn’t matter who is in office. We must be truthful at all times,” he said.
