Professor Jane Naana Opoku Agyeman, the running mate to the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, says Ghana has never have we experienced the levels of greed displayed by this incumbent government over the past seven years and more.
Speaking at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA) auditorium in Accra on Monday, April 24 Professor Naana Opoku Agyeman mentioned that she has been around for a while, and have experienced the to-and-fro of politics in Ghana.
“Some of us have been around for a while, and have experienced the to-and-fro of politics in Ghana.But never have we experienced the levels of greed, unbridled arrogance, unrestrained impunity, sheer dishonesty, barefaced hypocrisy and incompassion displayed by this incumbent government over the past seven years and more.”
“The task ahead is formidable, much more than it was four years ago. I remain inspired by the fact that, as a people, we have faced terrible situations before. Check our history. Please don’t begin with the Fourth Republic or the struggle for independence, important though they are.
“Go hundreds of years back. In those hard times, our forefathers and foremothers, did not throw up their arms in despair. They fought back; they resisted, they sacrificed, they persevered; they brought back hope where there was none; they picked up the broken pieces and carefully, strategically, sewed them back, and they left for us a legacy of selflessness, patriotism, and pride. It’s our turn to leave the same and even better to our future generations. Giving up is not an option,” she noted.
