Part of the statement read, “ In just a few weeks under his administration, alarming developments have surfaced, including Deteriorating Power Supply: Ghanaians are experiencing worsening electricity instability, threatening businesses and livelihoods. Security Challenges: A noticeable decline in national security, particularly in the northern regions, has heightened concerns over public safety”.
Rising Illegal Mining (Galamsey) and Violence: The resurgence of illegal mining. Accompanied by violent incidents in Obuasi, poses severe environmental and security risks.
Employment Crisis: The government’s mass cancellation of public sector recruitments and appointments has exacerbated unemployment, deepening economic uncertainty”, the NPP stated.
The NPP statement added, “In light of this, the New Patriotic Party, through its leadership in Parliament, led by Hon. Alexander Kwamena Afenyo Markin, will present the True State of the Nation Address to offer Ghanaians a factual and objective account of the nation’s condition.
We remain committed to ensuring transparency, accountability, and responsible governance”, they stated.
Meanwhile, President John Dramani Mahama has revealed Ghana’s state of the nation is not good.
