Politicians are liars- Mahama laments

NDC Presidential candidate, John Mahama has said politicians are liars. His lamentation is on the fact that Ghanaians no longer trust politicians because of lies and failed lofty promises.

He said many people are beginning to have the idea that politicians only lie their way to the top without thinking about the ramifications of their unfulfilled promises.

The former President, Mahama made this known when he was addressing the Chiefs and people of Wa Traditional area.

Mahama however assured the people he was addressing that NDC is a party of truth who only promises what it can do and delivers accordingly because they have the concerns of the populace at heart.

“We have been practicing this democracy since 1992 and Ghanaians have become very discerning. They are not people that you can take for granted or take for a ride.”

“Any party that comes with the notion that it can promise heaven just to win power will be very disappointed on the day of the election because the results will reject those false promises. NDC is a party that takes truth and honesty seriously. We promise only what we can deliver,” he said.

Stop Pampering Ghanaians with Free Things: Former President John Mahama says the Akufo-Addo government needs to focus on creating jobs, rather than policies that provide free things.

According to him, a citizenry that is working can afford to pay for anything that they need.

He said that instead of investing in productive sectors to create jobs, the Akufo-Addo government is prioritizing consumption.

“This government is prioritizing consumption; no government develops prioritizing consumption. You have to invest money in the productive sectors and the productive sectors would create jobs and the jobs will create prosperity for the people,” the NDC flagbearer said.
