The Director of International Relations of National Democratic Congress (NDC), Alex Segbefia has described the outcome of the survey conducted by Center for Democratic Development Ghana (CDD-Ghana), six months after the 2020 election, as an indictment on government’s performance.
Speaking on Joy FM's Top Story on Tuesday, he said the survey report confirms the NDC's misgivings about the outcome of the 2020 polls.
“In terms of how the government is measured, it’s clearly an indictment of government’s performance, six months after election, if you are getting this type of a survey, when you say you won comfortably, it sets the question as to what are the real election results. But that’s another matter. We’ve been to court on that so we shall let it rest,” he told Evans Mensah.
This comes in the wake of a post-election research conducted by the CDD-Ghana revealed that the majority of Ghanaians are not confident in the ability of the Akufo-Addo government to protect financial resources and curb corruption over the next four years.
The survey which was carried out between May 3, and June 3 this year, involved 2,400 adults respondents from all the 16 regions in the country. The survey was presented today by the Research Director at CDD-Ghana, Dr Edem Selormey.
According to Mr Segbefia, the findings of the survey has given the NDC more room to improve upon their policies.
He added that Parliament needs to work on concerns raised by respondents on their operations.
“For example, people seem to have taken a view that when Ministers are being vetted, there is no point in listening because it’s going to come to a final conclusion that the person would get the job. One would have thought that on this occasion, it would have been different because of hung Parliament, it wasn’t, and people didn’t show any or don’t seem to even want to know and that is something that the Parliament has to work on,” Mr Segbefia said.
