Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, Member of Parliament for Ofoase-Ayirebi, has called on opposition parties to support the good initiatives by President Nana Akufo-Addo and his government.
Speaking on Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo' programme, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah urged the parties, particularly the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), to stop predicting doom for the government.
He urged detractors of the Nana Addo government to make constructive criticisms and help the government to achieve its objectives instead of praying for its downfall.
“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem because it is in the peace of Jerusalem that you’ll also find peace (quoting from Jeremiah 29:7", Hon. Oppong Nkrumah said, reminding the opposition parties that the failure of the government will have adverse effects on the entire nation with the parties not excluded.
“Let’s help him. Let’s support him. We should pray for him. Let’s support his government for its success will benefit all of us," he stated.
He further advised government appointees to remain focused on their tasks and effectively execute their duties.
“This is not a time for you to do something to disgrace His Excellency. This is not an opportunity to perpetrate violence or do something to bring disgrace to the government because you think you haven’t got something.”
Also commenting on the President's State of the Nation Address on Tuesday, PNC's former National Youth Organizer Abu Ramadan called on the parties to assist President Akufo-Addo in order to improve the economy.
He urged the nation to embrace the vision of the President, saying "it's a country we’re building and whoever lives in the country will benefit from the good governance, good policies and good initiatives of the government of the day. So, they should support the President…In the NDC era, for every position in government where they found it difficult to appoint people; in this government there are 10 or 12 people competent to fit in every position.”

I believe in 1 district 1 factory dreams & ready to support that move on any form within my capacity. However, I strongly believe that these factories should be privatized when successful because Ghanaians are found of running down state institutions till they collapse.
Well said. But the question is? Did you pray for Mahama for at least five minutes to succeed? Look into your heart of heart, and tell Ghanaians you did what you are asking Ghanaians to do now for the former president. All we heard was, incompetent mahama, incompetent Mahama, incompetent mahama. God be with you.
Since did you realize this, you moron? You people think you can deceive Ghanaians and get away with. Now all your wise pastors have gone into hiding. Those who are visible are also saying Ghanaians complain too much. You think God is asleep. You will say the truth one after the other. Even when it was clear that John mahama was doing something reasonable for Ghana, you and your type claimed he was incompetent. Now you and your competent men are here, why do we still experience dumsor and high cost of living. Why is the cedi still rising. This is the best type for Barwumia to organize more lectures to criticize nana Addo. God will punish you one after the other.
What is this barawo talking about? you did not only pull Mahama down you went to England and US to mobilise your supporters to hoot at him. Every day was a demonstration day in Ghana.You even burnt markets all because Nana Ado must be president at all cost. God is so wonderful that he gave your Nana Ado long life to taste the presidency so he can turn Ghana into the land of milk and honey. Nobody is wishing doom for your chief Nana, you are only being chased by your own shadows. The ball you threw onto the wall now bounds back to you. Mahama is a free man now receiving his awards world wide, let your Nana cary his own cross.
Kojo you were one of the guys praying for doom during the last government tenure. Have you grown matured in this few weeks? Brace yourself this is just the beginning. Unfortunately for you, your leader is not a wise man. That makes it terrible for him to be a President.
ooo,nooooo Kojo Oppong Nkrumah should know that some of us with the Government(NPP) a Double Portion of what they wished for the NDC then... that is is fair or ???? if you wished the then NDC government failure, then DOUBLE FAILURE awaits you tooo.....
Koliko will never learn to behave as human, all he does is to insult people and yet NDC will end up and say NPP always insult when someone to agree with them which is all the NDC is into. @Sank, the country is growing up so that immaturity of tit for tat must stop cos we must work as a nation, 60years of independence and we still be behaving like we are 5yrs. lets grow up
IS THIS LUNATIC SERIOUS? WHEN DID HE GET HIS SENSES BACK? DID HE RESPECT ANYBODY WHILE IN OPPOSITION? THE BIBLE READILY ADVISES US THAT WHATEVER A MAN SOWS THE SAME THING HE WOULD REAP. THEREFORE WHATEVER THE NPP SOWS IT IS THEIR REAPING TIME AND THERE SHOULD NOT BE COMPLAINTS.
Koliko must you insult for everything you disagree with? Shame!!!!!!!!!!!!
