Anthony Asamoah Fordjour, NDP parliamentary candidate for Manhyia North
Anthony Asamoah Fordjour, the National Democratic Party (NDP) parliamentary candidate for Manhyia North Constituency, has asked President Mahama to resign before the December general elections.
He blamed the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) government for mismanaging the country’s economy which has imposed untold hardship on Ghanaians presently.
The NDP parliamentary candidate has consequently given President Mahama a one-month ultimatum to humbly resign his post or face his wrath.
“I will lead a massive demonstration against him in Kumasi for destroying the country if he doesn’t resign.”
Mr. Asamoah, who is a businessman, stated that if President Mahama continued to stay in political office till December, Ghana’s problems would deepen.
Speaking in an interview to DAILY GUIDE, the NDP parliamentary candidate said the Mahama administration should be blamed for the mass failure of students in the recent WASSCE.
According to him, educational standard has fallen under the Mahama administration, noting that Ghana’s future would be jeopardized if nothing is done to revive the ailing educational system.
Mr. Asamoah also lambasted the NDC government for failing to tackle the high unemployment rate in the country.
My heart always bleeds whenever I see energetic youth and university graduates selling dog chains on the streets, he added.
According to him, under the leadership of President Mahama, taxes had been increased astronomically which has contributed to the collapse of small businesses, insisting that the NDC government should be voted out of office.
Mr. Asamoah said that the presidential election is a two-horse race between the NDP’s, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings and Nana Akufo-Addo of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
He said both Nana Konadu and Nana Akufo-Addo could properly manage the affairs of the state if they are voted into power, adding that Nana Konadu and the NDP would win the December general elections to bring prosperity to Ghanaians.
