Chairman Odeneho Kwaku Appiah (COKA), former Constituency Chairman for Afigya Kwabre South, has launched a scathing critique of the current administration, stating that President John Dramani Mahama and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) have delivered “nothing of value” during their seven months in office.
According to COKA, the country’s economy is in turmoil. “There are no dollars in the banks, and it’s crippling businesses,” he lamented. He added that food prices continue to rise, making life increasingly difficult for ordinary Ghanaians.
COKA argued that former President Akufo-Addo left Ghana in a stable and improving condition, but claimed Mahama has since reversed the progress. “Nothing has changed for the better,” he stated. “Mahama is repeating the same mistakes that led to his removal from office in the past. He has not learned.”
He also expressed disappointment in the silence of key stakeholders. According to him, some members of the media and civil society organizations (CSOs) have chosen to remain quiet in the face of the current challenges.
“Some journalists have taken positions and are no longer speaking out,” he alleged, suggesting a lack of accountability and impartial oversight.
COKA called for greater vigilance and advocacy from the media and CSOs, urging them to speak up and hold the government accountable for its actions and policies.
