Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has described President John Dramani Mahama’s first 120 days in office as deeply disappointing, claiming the period offers little to celebrate.
Speaking at a press conference organized by the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Afenyo-Markin criticized what he termed a failed “social contract” between the President and the Ghanaian people, insisting that the promises made within that timeframe have largely gone unfulfilled.
“The 120-day social contract was nothing more than a political gimmick—full of lofty promises with no intention of actual delivery,” he stated.
He pointed to the ongoing menace of illegal mining (galamsey) and the continued imposition of the COVID-19 levy as examples of unmet commitments.
According to him, the government’s pledge to abolish nuisance taxes remains unfulfilled, while environmental degradation continues under its watch.
With the 120-day period now over, Afenyo-Markin warned that Ghanaians will begin to experience the true nature of the Mahama administration.
He called on citizens to remain vigilant and speak up in defense of democracy and accountability.
