US-based Ghanaian Film Director Leila Djansi has slammed the John Mahama-led government for making Ghana a difficult place to live.
The award-winning director believes that Ghanaians were living in much better conditions eight years ago than they are doing today.
Leila, speaking in an interview on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM with KMJ, lamented that she had high hopes for the NDC but their performance is nothing to write home about. “I actually have [regretted] because I had high hopes. I am a leader myself [and] on set, a lot of things happen that you do not know about and you only find out… its already become a problem.
“I do not know whether it’s a John Mahama thing or if it’s the people around him. I do not know what it is but all I know is Ghana eight years ago, is not Ghana today and it’s not a good thing. I think we should be in a better place right now,” she said.
This won’t be the first time the Sinking Sands director is expressing her reservations about the NDC government.
In January this year, she said in a post that she had regretted campaigning for the party to win the 2012 elections.

"Good morning from John Mahama's Ghana!! Multiple days without water. Last week we had to call the company head to have taps opened".
"I so regret campaigning for NDC although I have no vote in Ghana. I lost friends, someone threatened to burn down my office in Ghana cos I was NDC. After all the sacrifices made to campaign and have faith in this party, Ghana has been faced with so much incompetence from this team! Even not living in Ghana, you feel the hardship".
"But they have money to give to a less qualified individual to brand buses. Buses we brand at no more than 5000ghc per bus were branded for 30,000. That money could have been used to improve the water-flow system in the country.Beds for hospitals... This is the Ghana you get when selfish people thrive. When they give only to their family members. Clothe themselves in material things so they can be worshiped.So shameful! And everyone has forgotten that the young woman in question hasn't returned the money and hasn't even been prosecuted".

NDC on paper should be better for Ghana, but practically they are messed up. This problem of failing voters is not peculiar to only NDC, all parties in Ghana have same problem. What we expect from our leaders as a people is not to increase the prices of gari, cassava, plantain etc. basic food. At least the local man should be able to get something to eat without suffering. What do we see today, even the basic food is a problem to secure. Like the Scottish said to English " You can take our freedom but don't take our Pie". This is the reason NDC has to be kicked out. They have taken both our freedom and our basic food.
why cant we be realistic for once, always blaming JM for everything, when we dump refuse everywhere...mosquitoes wont spare us, mismanage our lights...we will pay high bills, get to the office late and close early...productivity is poor. should Nana come to power which i doubt, with our bad attitudes nothing will change
NDC IS AN INSENS1T1VE PARTY, THEY ONLY THINK ABOUT THEMSELVES AND HOW THEY WILL HOLD ON TO POWER TO KEEP ENRICHING THEMSELVES WHILES THE MASSES SUFFER UNDER THEIR RULE . JOHN MAHAMA PLS SPARE US THE SUFFERING BY NOT TRYING TO RIGGED THIS ELECTIONS . JM TWASO
It is only Moronic, and people who are benefiting from this create loot and sh@re NDC gov't that will support them. REJECT JOHN MAHAMA and the NDC GHANAIANS or else we will start to sale our relatives to pay our utility bills, feed ourselves .
No water flowing in Korle Bu for three days now. Doctors and Nurses working under very harsh conditions while NDC had money to buy luxurious vehicles and heavy PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEMS campaigning. That is changing lives, transforming lives indeed
