Audio Attachment:Listen to John Boadu in an interview with Nana Yaw Kesseh |
General Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), John Boadu has appealed to Ghanaians to give the party 40 years in government to transform the country.
Speaking in an interview with Nana Yaw Kesseh sit-in host of Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo' programme Thursday, he stated that the incumbent government is rolling out several socio-economic initiatives to enhance the development of Ghana.
However, the transformation that the NPP anticipates, he noted, cannot be possible if the party doesn't get an extensive period in governance.
He cited that Ghanaians are facing lots of hardships because the citizenry didn't give the mandate to President Nana Akufo-Addo and his government in 2008 after Ex-President John Agyekum Kufour handed over the baton to him to run for elections on the ticket of the NPP.
To him, voting the National Democratic Congress (NDC) into power following the good works and social interventions that the Kufour government laid for Ghanaians was the genesis of the economic challenges confronting Ghanaians.
John Boadu doesn't want Ghanaians to make another mistake and so stressed that the NPP needs "not less than 40 years to run this country to bring this country to a level that we’ll all be happy . . . We should keep focus as a party because we’re not doing it for ourselves but for posterity. Generations and generations to come will not forgive us if we don’t stay in power for a very long time”.

Did you give Kwame Nkrumah 5 free years of changing Ghana from a bunch of tribes to a nation state? You threw bombs at him from day 1. and yet after 9 years, well we all know what he did. 9 years fresh out of hundred years of colonialism. and you want 40 years.
You'll know clearly see wen someone who is a failure speaks... U guys think u own Ghana right? Where are the men? Where's ur Economic Talisman Bawumia? Where are his Talismanly powers? Public lectures deceiving Ghanaians over economic figures..Where's He ? U owe John Mahama an apology...Ghanaians will use same standard to measure u... Indeed, posterity will be the judge. You ain't seen anything yet.... Well,2020 will soon be here....we shall see who's more powerful. Gud Luck
OH GHANA WHY? WHY OH GHANA.. Where are the brains God gave us.. As a country we need a development plan which must be legislated subject to change to meet the demands and needs of the time as it is been implemented.. With that Development plan no matter which party is in power the country would be geared towards achieving its set objectives.. The question is do we have a development plan for that 40 years John Boadu is even talking about? We have to be very serious as a country.. Politics and Politicking is a very serious business for intelligent and people with vision.. We are joking too much as a country.. No leader has no excuse if he fails as a leader of Ghana.. The people naturally are peaceful but the actions of our leaders and the negative rippling effects make her people react senselessly attimes.. We have brains in this country to move us forward and I am one of them.. I just need to be given the opportunity.. You are also one of them and you need to also be given the opportunity.. It is just the opportunity given to others and unfortunately they are luring it over us without using their brains..
And who do you think will give you such years to plunge this nation into chaos? Just look at how they are talking to our faces as if they own us. Just two years in government. We hear!
