She further alleged that the NDC has continually hoodwinked the public into believing that the NPP is corrupt and that they misappropriated the country\u2019s scarce financial resources.<br \/>\n\u201cDo not use the NPP as a crutch or as a flogging whip lash for your excuses. The NDC promised Ghanaians better Ghana with hope and relief for the vulnerable but that is not happening. You have a shipload of unfulfilled promises, don\u2019t just colour it by blaming the NPP. Let us ensure that good governance is delivered,\u201d she emphasized.<br \/>\nMadam Afisah-Djabah opined that the NDC has no moral grounds and justification to speak about accountability.<br \/>\n\u201cNDC has no moral grounding to talk about accountability, there is so much corruption in the NDC and people want to brand it and call it Ministerial indiscretion. We all know what is happening, people are looting and building all over the place; the facts are there so let us not pretend about accountability. When we talk about accountability I think sincerely, the NDC is the last people or group to talk about accountability\u2026Till today, who among the past officials in the Kufuor administration have they found guilty. In spite of all the harassment and all the things that they have put into play to ensure hyping up the public to believe that the NPP is corrupt and stole all the money in Ghana, they have not found anybody guilty because nobody stole any money,\u201d she noted.<br \/>\nShe advised the NDC to stop the hypocrisy and the double standards and see to it that they properly implement the good social intervention policies that the NPP put in place to mitigate hardships.<br \/>\n\u201cWe know that the \u2018Ahokyere\u2019 is too much in Ghana currently, so let us stop hypocrisy and the double standards and ensure that when we make a promise we deliver on our promise. Continue the social mitigation interventions that were brought by the NPP to cushion all these hardships to ensure that people have another way of having money,\u201d she added.<br \/>\nSource: Beatrice Adepa Frempong<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National Women\u2019s Organiser of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Otiko Afisah-Djaba says the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) must stop using the NPP as a crutch and flogging whip for their inability to fulfill their electoral promises.
