The Executive Director of the Media Foundation for West Africa (MFWA), Sulemana Braimah, is unhappy about Ghana’s situation after President Akufo-Addo was voted into power.
He told JoyNews’ Benjamin Akakpo on the AM Show on Monday that things are getting worse under Nana Addo’s leadership.
According to him, some of them had hope in him due to his track records and how he was touted.
“Some of us had hoped that President Akufo-Addo, given his track record and his stature and what we were made to believe about him, would have offered us different leadership. But it appears that somehow it’s even getting worse,” he stated.
Mr Braimah added: “If President Akufo-Addo were indeed committed to serving this country in the best of interest, I don’t think he’ll go and be demolishing houses to go and construct a cathedral. I don’t think that the levels of corruption that we’re seeing, we’ll see it the way it is now.
I don’t think that we’ll have a minister outside the country for 8 months and still hold on to her position as minister and a crucial ministry as that of women, children and gender and social protection. So I think it’s more about the enjoyment of the power, the enjoyment of the money that comes with it, the opportunity to amass wealth and all of that.”
He also bemoaned the rise of corruption among those in authority.
The MFWA Executive Director urged Ghanaians to help change the narrative.
To him, revolving around two political parties who indulge in the same wrongful acts is not the best.
