Gabby Otchere-Darko, the founder of policy think tank Danquah Institute, has commended President Akufo-Addo for performing better than the erstwhile Mahama administration.

According to him, President Akufo-Addo has outperformed former President John Mahama and wonders what campaign message the former President and NDC Flagbearer can give Ghanaians ahead of the December polls. 

“I wonder what John Mahama’s campaign message will be in 2020. On the economy: Akufo-Addo has done better. On health: Akufo-Addo has done better. On education: Akufo-Addo has done better. On infrastructure, Akufo-Addo is doing much better. 5 major interchange being built all at the same time; never in our history. With this government, Ghanaians can see where their money is going. Follow the facts. Not the propaganda”, Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko wrote on Facebook.

Meanwhile the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has inaugurated a twenty-one member election manifesto committee in its quest to recapture power in the 2020 elections.

The 21-member committee is expected to hold discussions with other stakeholders such as labour movements, civil society organizations and important key players in the country to come out with a well-designed manifesto that will focus on alleviating people from poverty and other economic hardships.

The committee is expected to tour all the 16 regions of the country in an attempt to solicit the views and concerns of the ordinary Ghanaian regarding how they would want the party to govern them.

Some of the members of the committee include; four former ministers, two former NDC flagbearer aspirants, Goosie Tanoh and Dr. Ekwow Spio-Garbrah and a former deputy Governor of the Bank of Ghana Dr. Johnson Asiamah.
