The Minority Chief Whip in Parliament, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, has stated that although he expected the John Mahama administration to fail in governing the country, he is surprised by how quickly that failure has become apparent.
According to the Member of Parliament for Nsawam-Adoagyire, from the very beginning, he was convinced that the Mahama government had nothing substantial to offer the country in terms of progress and development.
Speaking in an interview on Asaasepa Radio, Annoh-Dompreh criticized the Minister for Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, for his recent comments regarding the cocaine airplane allegations made by the Minority Ranking Member on the Defence and Interior Committee of Parliament, Reverend John Ntim Fordjour.
“If you are the Minister of Communications and speak on behalf of the President, then every time you speak, it is as though the President himself is speaking. In one breath, the President urges corroboration and collaboration. In another, you jump the gun and accuse Rev. Ntim Fordjour of lying, even going as far as calling him a clown.
“Where do such comments come from? They should remember that pride comes before a fall. But the NDC’s fall has begun to show far too early. With most governments, it takes about one or two years before problems become evident. But with the NDC, they’ve been in office for less than six months, and already their shortcomings are becoming clear,” he said.
The MP urged Ghanaians to prepare themselves for a series of scandals that he believes will engulf the NDC government by 2026.
“I will not curse this government, but by next year, you will witness the numerous scandals that will plague the Mahama administration in 2026. We will all be witnesses,” Annoh-Dompreh added.
