Obiri Boahen: ‘Most 2024 NDC Voters Now Regret Backing Mahama’

Former New Patriotic Party (NPP) Deputy General Secretary Nana Obiri Boahen has claimed that many Ghanaians who voted for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the 2024 general elections are now regretting their decision to support President John Dramani Mahama.

His comments add to the political debate over the performance of the Mahama-led administration and whether it is meeting the expectations of voters who supported the NDC’s return to power.

Obiri Boahen’s assertion suggests that some voters who backed the governing party during the December 2024 elections may have become dissatisfied with the government’s performance since it assumed office.

The NDC won the 2024 presidential election, bringing Mahama back to the presidency after his previous tenure from 2013 to 2017. The party campaigned on promises to improve economic conditions, create employment opportunities and implement policies under its Reset Agenda.

The government’s performance has since remained a subject of public discussion, with political opponents scrutinising its decisions and progress on campaign promises, while supporters defend its policies and initiatives.

Obiri Boahen’s remarks are likely to fuel further exchanges between the NPP and NDC as the parties seek to influence public opinion and assess their political standing.

However, his claim that many NDC voters now regret supporting Mahama has not been substantiated by polling figures or other evidence in the information available. The views of voters may differ depending on their expectations, economic circumstances and assessment of government policies.

Details about the specific issues Obiri Boahen cited to support his assertion, as well as the occasion on which he made the comments, were not provided.
