A leading member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Gabby Otchere-Darko, has showered praises on the John Mahama led NDC-government.

According to Gabby Otchere-Darko, the John Mahama government’s performance has been good.

He further highlighted that he hopes and prays that the good work the Mahama government is doing continues.

Gabby Otchere-Darko, in an interview with GHOne, stated, “This government’s performance has been good so far, I pray it continues”.

In that same interview, Gabby also indicated that both the NPP and NDC must be credited for where Ghana is now.

He added, “We should credit both NPP and NDC for where Ghana is now”.

Also, Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum, a former Education Minister and New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, has praised the John Mahama-led NDC government for Ghana’s steady economic management.

Speaking on JoyNews’ Newsfile on Saturday, January 17, Dr Adutwum stated that he is happy that the Mahama government is doing something good for Ghana.

He highlighted that he likes inflation being at 5 per cent, which brings stability and a stable cedi.

Dr Adutwum on Newsfile stated, “Like any Ghanaian, I am happy that the government is doing something good for our nation, bringing stability,” he said on the show when host, Sampson Lardy Anyenini, asked what he makes of the current situation of the economy.

“When I move beyond that, I begin to look at the future of Ghana, and where we can go, then we will have a different discussion. But of course, the government comes in and is able to do certain things; it is not about politics, it is about doing the reality and saying I like 5% inflation, it is a good thing. It brings stability. I like the fact that the cedi is stable, it is a good thing,” he said.

“So we are in a good place, stability, but we have to look beyond that stability to say if there is no oxygen on the patient, what will happen? When I take off the oxygen, if I take off the ten billion intervention, what will happen?.”

Meanwhile, President John Dramani Mahama has once again reiterated his commitment to raising Ghana’s economy and governance to a level no succeeding government can reverse.

Speaking at the annual New Year School Conference on Tuesday, January 6, President Mahama expressed his determination to make his second term count.

According to President Mahama, Ghana must set an example at a time when democratic governance is under pressure in parts of Africa.

President Mahama stated, “I have decided to make this second mandate so graciously granted to me by Ghanaians count. I have pledged to raise our economy and governance to a level that no succeeding government can reverse.”

“In a region where democracy is backsliding, we must demonstrate that democracy works and that our people can have faith in their leaders to uphold their interests and create opportunities for national prosperity,” he stated.

He further assured Ghanaians that his administration would maintain fiscal saying, “I can assure Ghanaians also that we will not relax the current fiscal discipline and efficient management of the economy even in the election year of 2028”.
