Stop Saying I Deliberately Promoted NPP to Power- Franklin Cudjo
The President of IMANI Africa, Franklin Cudjo has urged Ghanaians to stop accusing him of aiding the coming into power of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Addressing the issue which appears to be of much concern to him, the social commentator said it is a false narrative.
“I want to ask some of you to stop peddling the false narrative that l deliberately promoted this government into power,” he said in a Facebook post.
According to him, the abysmal and unprecedented performance of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) led by John Dramani Mahama before 2016 got him protesting and registering his dissatisfaction just like all other Ghanaians.
“It was the NDC’s misdeeds, which at the time were unmatched by any party since 1992 that got us all complaining. I do not care if my actions then benefitted the NPP electorally in 2016.”
With the same or even worse record being produced by the incumbent government, he intends to continue his advocacy against them and is unperturbed if it would facilitate the victory of the NDC in the upcoming general elections.
“Just know though that as l did then, I will and have been doing the same against current economic decadence, grand procurement-inspired theft, larceny, misgovernance, misrule, aggravated arrogance, fiscal recklessness culminating in the ugliest of financial haircuts, demeaning of the self-esteem of our pensioner senior citizens and shepherding almost a million people into hard-core poverty as never experienced since generations.”
“And I do not care if all I do as well as those of my colleagues benefits the NDC and any political party.”
