The National Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Henry Nana Boakye, has criticised the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government, accusing it of failing to deliver on its promises after one year in office.

He said the administration has worsened living conditions for Ghanaians and undermined key democratic institutions.

Addressing the media, Nana Boakye expressed concern over the sharp increases in electricity and water tariffs, describing them as a heavy burden on ordinary citizens.

He also faulted the government’s handling of illegal mining, popularly known as galamsey, alleging that some NDC officials have been linked to the illicit activities.

The NPP national organiser further condemned what he described as the politically motivated removal of the former Chief Justice and attempts to weaken the independence of the Electoral Commission by targeting its Chair.

According to him, these actions, if not checked, threaten the integrity of Ghana’s democratic institutions and the rule of law.

Nana Boakye urged the government to demonstrate accountability and focus on delivering tangible improvements in the lives of citizens, stressing that the people’s patience is not limitless.

He emphasised that transparency, good governance, and the protection of institutional independence are vital to maintaining public trust in the government.

His remarks come amid growing scrutiny of the NDC government as it marks its first year in office.
