The Executive Director of IMANI Ghana, Franklin Cudjoe has appealed to the government to match all its numerous promises with "realistic, quantifiable and proper plans" for immediate execution in 2012.Franklin Cudjoe said even though his expectations were not met in the 2011 ‘Action Year’, he is sure if proper measures and strategies are put in place, the promises chronicled by the Mills-administration can be achieved in 2012.He was commenting on the 2011 ‘Action Year’ declared by President John Evans Atta Mills, which has subsequently been met with mixed reactions from Ghanaians.The ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) says the country witnessed tremendous changes in all sectors in the 2011 'Action Year' whiles the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) believes the living standards of Ghanaians have worsened since the NDC assumed power.However, President Mills on Tuesday at an end of year party for castle staff reaffirmed his commitment to make 2012 a hopeful year.But speaking on Asempa FM’s,Ekosii Sen programme on Friday, Franklin Cudjoe opined that the macroeconomic indicators being professed by members of the ruling party is not being felt in the pockets of the ordinary Ghanaian.“Times are bad, times are very difficult and so you would expect that ordinary Ghanaians including myself would say that we have not seen the reflection of the good macroeconomic indicators in our pockets.”He said most of the social intervention programmes like the school feeding, free school uniforms, capital grants, National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) amongst others, sound so rural that those living in Accra don’t see its impact.The Imani boss expressed disappointment at the Mills-led administration's inability to implement the one time premium payment of the NHIS, which was very prominent in the party's manifesto prior to the 2008 general elections.He said sarcastically that “by the government's own talks, we give them kudos but it's for Ghanaians in general to say that they are satisfied with the mandate they gave the NDC”.Franklin Cudjeo hoped that most of the bigger projects that were not properly thought through by the government like the STX housing project would be given a new lease of life in 2012.
