A viral video of the Member of Parliament for Tamale North, Alhassan Suhuyini, presenting appointment letters to some constituents has surfaced on social media.
In the viral 30-second video shared on X, the Deputy Roads minister and MP for Tamale North was seated with some constituents, also seated to his right, and others standing.
Alhassan Suhuyini was spotted with some brown and white envelopes in his hand, which he presented to his constituents.
The viral video was shared with the caption, “MP for Tamale North, Alhassan Suhuyini, presented appointment letters (EPA, NADMO) to deserving constituents today.
These form part of his efforts to support human capital development”.
Some Ghanaians have reacted to the viral video, saying, “In times when decency was still a thing, this would have been done behind closed doors, and I wouldn’t have had any problem with it. Why the heck is this on camera?
To tell you and me that opportunity is not in any way associated with equity or equality”.
Another netizen wrote, “Very funny. Coming from someone who was on radio gold back then, ranting about the same thing being perpetuated by politicians”.
“What is sensational here? This isn’t a new norm, nor is it a wayward step to take. Probably the digital equivalent is what might be trending, but there’s absolutely nothing wrong here, and stop making good look like it’s not. Meanwhile, we have seen what your party did”, one more netizen added.
Additionally, an X user wrote, “You guys don’t know what the MPs go through when it comes to employment issues in the constituency. That’s the best, which will serve as a reminder in case they start lying that he doesn’t get his constituent employment”.
“These guys did not do any interview, what dey bore me sef be say de employer sef know see dema faces b4. Governance is too cheap in Ghana. At least I am expecting NDC to elevate the bar small, but it seems the pigs will always return to dirt after cleaning them- politicians”, an X user added.
Alhassan Suhuyini comes at a time when NDC executives and presidential staffers have been talking about their grassroots.
Presidential Staffer, Beatrice Annangfio, appealed to grassroots members of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) to remain calm over delays in appointments.
Speaking on GH Today, she stated, “I keep saying that we have a nation to build – a nation where every citizen will be happy. We also have a party, which serves as a vehicle to help us build that nation and remain in power. It is, therefore, important that the fine balance between the nation and the party is not lost on us. There must be a deliberate and calculated effort to ensure that both the state and the party benefit”.
“Personally, I respond to every text message and answer every call. Sometimes, you meet someone who says, ‘I called you, you didn’t pick up,’ or ‘I sent you a message,’ only to realise they never actually did. As I sit here speaking to you, I have 42 missed calls,” she explained.
She added, “If you visit me on an ordinary day in my office, you’ll see people coming in and out constantly. When they leave, they may not call again, but later around 10 p.m., they send text messages, usually just to empathise with me. So I want to plead with my party members to understand that no one is deliberately neglecting them”.
“People will always come back. I have worked with many individuals during the campaign, and I cannot close my doors to them because, in the next campaign, I might need to work with them again. Some people just don’t know what to say yet, so we must all be patient,” she said.
Also, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, the National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has urged party members to remain in touch with the electorate.
Speaking during his Thank You Tour, Asiedu Nketia stated, “For some time now, we’ve missed that opportunity because of WhatsApp and Facebook. We think that by communicating on social media, we are reaching everyone. But that is completely different”.
“We must reinstitute the outreach programmes that kept us connected to the people,” he said, adding: “That’s how we can explain policies better, understand their impact on lives and make the necessary adjustments early.”
