Ghanaians voted against an evil government led by a President who wanted to sell Ghana to his family - MP

The Member of Parliament for Banda, Ahmed Ibrahim, has stated that the outcome of the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections represents a rejection of a government that tormented its citizens.

He asserted that Ghanaians voted the outgoing New Patriotic Party (NPP) out of office because it became insensitive, reckless, and failed to listen to the people.

According to him, the government worsened the already poor living conditions of the populace, and during the elections, citizens expressed their dissatisfaction by voting decisively against it.

He made these remarks during an interview on Frontline on Rainbow Radio 87.5 FM.

The lawmaker said, “First, I want to thank God for this victory and extend my gratitude to the people of Ghana for the massive endorsement they have given the NDC. I am glad they chose good over evil. The Bible even states that he who knows good and chooses evil has sinned. So, this victory is divine.

We urged Ghanaians to assess their situation and vote accordingly, and clearly, they did. This outcome is unprecedented. The results of the elections will serve as a lesson to politicians: if you neglect and deprive the people, they will vote against you in a decisive manner.”

He further emphasized that the results place a significant responsibility on the incoming Mahama-led administration, making it imperative not to fail the Ghanaian people.

“I see this massive endorsement from the Ghanaian people as divine intervention from God. Nana Akufo-Addo’s core objective was to sell Ghana to his family. What was happening under his leadership was state capture—an attempt to treat the country as a private entity.

"However, Ghanaians prayed against it, and because God was also against it, He allowed the people to vote them out of power in such a decisive manner. The policy of state capture was not from God, and so He dismantled it and gave the NDC an absolute majority,” he concluded.
