The National Organizer for the National Democratic Congress [NDC], Kofi Adams believes scores of Ghanaians have deeply regretted for not voting John Dramani Mahama to be retained as president in the recent general polls.
"...I’m happy that having been elected and now having gone through vetting the Minister-designate for Health is telling us that it was politics they were doing then on political platforms. That the use of the word ‘collapse’ was too harsh to describe the state of the National Health Insurance Scheme [NHIS], even though it was bedeviled with some challenges which really the then government was working assiduously to deal with; including improving funding sources and also making sure that the level of liquidity of the NHIS is improved,” Kofi Adams said.
According to him, through the vetting process, Ghanaians who were hoodwinked into believing that “President Mahama was not working for them, are being told the truth by at least some of these nominees who have not been arrogant, who fear God and who understand that they are speaking under oath and not on a political platform. At least they have been very candid and truthful to the people of this country."
Kofi Adams was speaking to Citi News on his views regarding the vetting process of the first batch of ministerial nominees (13) named by the Nana Akufo-Addo administration; especially that of Mr Agyemang Manu, Minister-designate for Health.
The NPP's Nana Akufo-Addo won last year's polls, becoming president at the third attempt and cementing the country's reputation as a standard bearer of democracy in a region that has been blighted by civil wars and coups. Akufo-Addo defeated President John Mahama by 53.8 percent to 44.4 percent.
But the NDC National Organizer is of thestrong view that the NPP lied its way into power and that the many campaign promises were mere sloganeerisms aimed at wooing the electorates for votes.
“I feel bad but it has already happened because citizens were not ready to listen to our side of the story like many people said that many people were yearning for a particular change that they didn’t even know. Today they have seen it and I believe that many of them have regretted for not voting for President Mahama and I do pray that we survive this four years...Ghana will stay strong for a solid come back of the NDC to continue the great job that we were doing,” he added.

Be careful of the words you bring out.
@Naa God Bless you. Ghanaians are at PEACE with each other in the country since 9th December, 2016 when the fall of NDC came. Those people in NDC thinking like K. Adams should wait after 4 and for that matter 8 years there they can criticize . By the Almighty God GRACE things will change. Because money being used for personal use will be used for the whole NATION.
We regret ever voting for John Mahama the corrupt! That brought you babies with sharp teeth and greedy bastards and the NDC ***barred word*** brigade. We regret ever allowing 1di0ts like you having access to media and talking ***barred word*** of this kind. N0nseense!
It serves you right. Ohh, so you have started suffering. When you were in government you and the other babies with sharp teethes were insulting Ghanaians. Why are you complaining? This is a government who is three weeks in office yet you are complaining. All the messes were caused by the NDC.
THANK GOD IS WHAT YOU BELIEVE , BUT NOT WHAT YOU SEE OR HEAR . CANT YOU SEE GHANANIANS ARE AT PEACE WITH THEM SELVES BECAUSE YOUR CORRUPT PARTY IS OUT OF SITE
Kofi Adams, I am so glad you, Asiedu Nketia, Kwadwo 'FreeZones', are no longer in control. Now i sleep deep, knowing that JDM's nation wrecking incompetence is derailed. I am glad Ghanaians prevented JDM to loot state resources as his retirement package. i am glad you said "I believe ..." because you do not have a clue of what has happened in Ghana! Upon all your loud mouthing you could not help JDM to remain in power, and now you are insulting us? Descerning Ghanaians are wiser and awake than you think. I am glad the rigging "Computer" failed this time. Good riddance.
Kofi, you have not Learnt your lesson. Propaganda sent you to opposition yet you are not learning. Ghanaians are alive oo. Wait till the ministers assume office and you will see how to run a country effectively. We have not regreted one bit. Most Ghanaians are taking a sigh of relief from Mahama's incompetent corrupt government.
Kofi Adamu, this your statement of regret had been prepared by you to throw sand into out eyes. You should have waited for some time before bringing out for the pulling down of the legs of NPP. 19 days in office is too early a time to say this Kofi.
APUUUUUUUUU
