The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has bemoaned what the party said was an over-concentration on trivial issues by the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) rather than focusing on delivering their promise of Better Ghana Agenda.
According to a Deputy Communications Director of the NPP, John Boadu, there are more pertinent issues facing Ghanaians which require rapid solutions by government rather than the unnecessary attention on the NPP's ‘Four years of Positive Change, so far so good’ booklet.
The booklet supposedly had in it photos of KVIP’s and some menial projects as achievements chalked in the first four years of the erstwhile Kufuor government.
Communications Director of the NPP Nana Akomea who denied the NPP printed the book said the party would investigate the matter because the pictures in the booklet looked ‘photoshopped’.
But the NDC maintained the emergence of the booklet exposes the hypocrisy of the NPP who have ridiculed President J.E.A. Mills for commissioning boreholes and classroom blocks as part of the Better Ghana Agenda.
John Boadu on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme Friday opined that, the ruling government prefer to score cheap political points with the issue than to improve upon the massive achievements of the NPP.
John Boadu said apart from the NPP’s manifesto, the only document printed by the party which listed the achievements in the first four years of the Kufuor-led government was ‘Positive change four more years' in 2004.
He noted that the document was purposely for the 2004 electioneering campaign to emphasize the need for Ghanaians to retain the NPP in power to continue the projects being executed, but was not for propaganda purposes.
He said attempts by the NDC to equate President Mills’ achievements to that of ex-president Kufuor 'would not wash’.
John Boadu raised concerns about what he claimed were the deteriorating health, education, and economic situation as well as the massive employment situation in the country, and urged the government to find a lasting solution to what he said was a looming crisis.
"These are the pertinent issues that face the people of this country and not the propaganda," he added.
