Former Minister of Information, Honorable Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, has acknowledged that President John Dramani Mahama is acting in the best interest of Ghanaians, three months after assuming office on January 7, 2025. The former minister admitted that Mahama’s administration has shown commitment to addressing national issues.
“I can say that in his first three months as president of Ghana, His Excellency John Dramani Mahama has done a good job for the people of Ghana. It is always necessary to speak the truth,” Oppong Nkrumah stated.
He further noted that mistakes made by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in governance contributed to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) returning to power. However, he expressed confidence that the NPP would correct those mistakes and reclaim power in the future.
“We hope to see good improvement because this is what democracy is all about,” he said. According to him, the essence of democracy lies in a strong opposition holding the government accountable, ensuring that leaders remain focused on national development.
Reflecting on past elections, Oppong Nkrumah recalled that in 2016, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo defeated Mahama to become president. Mahama faced another defeat in 2020 before securing victory in the 2024 elections, with Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang serving as his vice president. Oppong Nkrumah’s remarks have sparked discussions about the NPP’s strategy moving forward, as the party looks to rebuild ahead of future elections.
