Former President John Dramani Mahama has said that the tragedy of the Akufo-Addo administration is not only the colossal debt it has saddled Ghanaians with.
According to him, it is not only the huge fiscal deficit he has created even before #COVID-19 or the hundreds of projects he has abandoned causing taxpayers money to go waste.
Mr Mahama noted that the particular tragedy of the Akufo Addo’s government is in the destruction and politicization of the institutions.
He further stated that the judiciary that lacks impartiality, an oppressed Parliament, a pliant Electoral Commission, an Auditor General hounded out of office, a misused military, anticorruption institutions in bondage, an intimidated media, and a terrified moral society constitute the tragedy of the four years of Akufo-Addo’s administration.
According to Mahama, Akufo-Addo has set the democracy back twenty-eight (28) years. To him, this is what makes it a patriotic duty for all patriotic Ghanaians to join hands to rescue the nation.
“I, John Dramani Mahama, will restore dignity and independence to our state institutions. I will depoliticize our democratic institutions and make them work effectively and independently for all Ghanaians.
“Ghanaians will respect the judiciary once again. Justice will be impartial and Ghanaians will be able to express themselves freely, once more, without fear of harassment or death.” Mahama said
