Owusu Bempah’s Open Letter To John Mahama | Features

Expensive Mr. Former President,

Let me to begin with congratulate you and your NDC cult in your elections.

All of us knew this present day would come. All of us knew it was only a matter of time. All of us knew that it was inevitable that you just have been going to be the NDC flagbearer for election 2024.

After all, I for one don’t have any problem with you making an attempt to have one other shot on the job
however are you able to please inform the Ghanaian individuals the way you got here by all the cash splurged round within the major season?

Respectfully sir, I’ve heard you talk about the way you search to interrupt the affect of cash in politics. It’s your declare that “moneycracy” is unhealthy for us as a society, and but you doled out a whopping ghc15million for the 355,000 voting delegates who took half within the weekend elections.

Really, you blown away that type of cash in a single day in a rustic the place practically half of the inhabitants lives under the poverty line on $2 a day.

On this period of unstable financial realities, the place each one is preaching in opposition to profligacy, you are busy splurging all in an try to purchase the NDC nomination?

How in regards to the cash you spent throughout the whole 275 constituencies in your rounds?

Sir, do you even have the ethical weight or authority to speak about our financial state of affairs if you go about spending cash anyhow like an “Arabian King” on an election that everyone knows you alredy had within the bag?

As a citizen of Ghana and an activist, I demand of you to be accountable to the individuals of Ghana over your marketing campaign funds. Who’re your donors and what have you ever promised them in return?

If the NDC you lead nonetheless cherishes probity, accountability, and social justice, then you have to be on the market accounting to your supporters relating to the money you unfold round on this primaries.

Once more, earlier immediately, I listened to you spew out load of tosh about stuff you would wish to come again to. You touted your self as s new hero who’s coming to avoid wasting Ghana.

In precise truth, you made the purpose that you’d work to abolish fee of Ex-gratia and reduce out waste.

Mr former President, why did it take you this lengthy to grasp that Ex-gratia is an aberration? After amassing your Ex-gratia as Member of Parliament, Vice chairman and president? How farcical can it get for you?

You additionally made one more humorous level indicating that you’d return banking licenses that have been unjustly revoked.

Respectfully sir, below whose tenure did we skilled the banking sector disaster resulting in the collapse of the banks? It was below management, mr former President. You truly tousled the banking sector a lot in order that President Akufo-Addo had no alternative however to revoke their licenses and clear up the sector.

So, the place is your credibility in all this?

Respectfully sir, you and your NDC are indulging in an astonishing show of naval gazing should you imagine you may ever be elected into authorities once more. Certainly, your well-known information of incompetence, corruption and gluttony is there for all to see; out of your insensitive remarks to the coach nurses, your objections of being a lifeless goat to all of the corruption allegations in opposition to you whereas in workplace, the Saglemi fraudulent housing deal and the Airbus corruption.

Sir, do you truthfully assume Ghanaians will vote for you once more to return and reign for 4 years and to proceed together with your grossly indisciplined management?

Mr former President, are you coming again to create, loot and share? Are you coming again to take bribes on authorities contracts?

Do you actually assume Ghanaians have forgotten the hardship you took them by way of? The 4 years of the “Dumsor financial system?”

A leopard by no means modifications its spot, and Ghanaians are very a lot conscious of this.

Your so-called new picture that you just hold shoving down the throat of your superters cannot obfuscate and distract the nice individuals of Ghana out of your chequered previous information.

Certainly, the NDC below your watch is now completed as a political power. It is now the occasion of protest and loony fringe of propagandists introduced collectively below a bizzare circumstances.

Alas the time has come to fall in your sword. Now’s the time to your second of anagnorisis.

Please realise that the NDC is at the moment unelectable below your management.

I shall return

Sincerely yours,

Ernest Kofi Owusu Bempah Bonsu (Deputy Director of Communications – NPP)
