The Minority in Parliament has criticized the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), accusing the party of deceiving Ghanaians with unrealistic promises to secure victory in the 2024 general elections.
During the debate on the second batch of President John Dramani Mahama’s ministerial nominees on Tuesday, January 21, Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin condemned the NDC’s campaign rhetoric and vowed to hold the government accountable for its commitments.
Afenyo-Markin expressed skepticism about the government’s ability to deliver on its promises, warning that electoral victory does not translate into unchecked authority.
“We will hold your feet to the fire. You think you campaigned and got it handed to you on a silver platter? You will see,” he stated.
The Minority Leader accused the NDC of raising false hopes among Ghanaians and cautioned that the truth behind the ruling party’s intentions would soon become evident.
He pledged that his caucus would rigorously monitor and scrutinize the government’s actions to ensure transparency and accountability.
“Today, you are in government, and we will follow through on every single promise you made while on the campaign platform,” Afenyo-Markin added.
The Minority emphasized that it would not relent in its efforts to ensure the government delivers on its campaign commitments, pledging to remain a vigilant force in Parliament.
