Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mustapha Gbande, has declared he is ready to face any consequence should the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) return to power.
According to him, he would “sign [his] will and hand [himself] over” if they win a future election.
Gbande, declared, “When they come to power one day, they can kill us for all I care. But whether they go to Heaven or they go to Hell, I am giving him the full assurance that we are going to disturb our ministers to do press conferences to give state of affairs.”
Speaking on JoyNews’ The Pulse, he insisted that the NDC will hold the government to account, promising that its ministers will regularly update the public on the true state of the nation’s affairs.
“As at the time we came to power, what did they meet at their agencies and ministries? Let these people have the mouth to talk,” Gbande challenged.
The Deputy General Secretary further criticised what he described as a lack of accountability for alleged corruption, pointing to the CEO of Cocobod.
“I don’t understand why the Cocobod CEO is still walking about,” he remarked. “We’ve heard Randy Abbey talk on radio, saying the things they have done, how they reaped up Cocobod. Why has he not been arrested?”
Gbande condemned the NPP’s eight years in power as a period marked by “treachery, criminal tendencies, corruption, and unprofessional conduct.”
He accused the opposition party of punishing the Ghanaian people, destroying businesses, dissipating the public purse, and enriching themselves at the expense of the nation.
