A member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) National Communications Team, Ama Daaku, has reiterated her party’s commitment to being a responsible voice as they transition into opposition.
She also expressed high expectations for the incoming National Democratic Congress (NDC) administration, urging them to deliver on their promises.
Speaking on Angel Morning Show (AMS) on Monday, December 16, 2024, Ama Daaku noted that the NDC has significant responsibilities in the coming four years, particularly given their strong parliamentary majority.
“I expect that after Nana Addo hands over to John Mahama, the NDC will fulfill all the promises they made. With their two-thirds majority in Parliament, they have no excuse to claim that their initiatives failed due to opposition from the NPP.
“The NPP is now in the extreme minority, so the NDC has full control of both the presidency and Parliament,” she stated.
Ama Daaku highlighted that the NDC’s parliamentary dominance gives them the ability to pass laws and implement policies without significant resistance.
She urged the new government to use this advantage responsibly and deliver tangible results for Ghanaians.
“I’m expecting the NDC to deliver on their promises starting January 7. They’ve assured Ghanaians of a 24-hour economy, and I’ll be watching closely to see this implemented.
“I expect petrol prices to drop to three cedis per liter, kenkey to sell at one cedi, and for all their promises to materialize,” she said.
Ama Daaku further pledged to remain vigilant and committed in her role as a communications team member, ensuring the NDC is held accountable for their governance.
“They can rest assured that I will stay focused. As we move into opposition, I’ll be a very responsible communications member. My role is to make sure the NDC delivers on what they’ve promised the people of Ghana,” she added.
Her remarks reflect the NPP’s readiness to play a constructive opposition role while holding the NDC to their campaign promises, particularly in areas like economic management and social welfare policies.
