Energy Minister Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh says that the New Patriotic Party (NPP), which is in power, is a better choice for Ghanaians than the NDC, which is in the opposition.
He said that the Ghana cedi's loss of value against the US dollar is one of the government's problems, but that things would have been worse if another political party had been in charge of the country's economy.
NAPO says that if the NDC had been in charge, the cedi would have reached Ghs48 to the dollar, which would have been a record low.
He stated:
“NPP’s worst is better than NDC’s best. Some of you are motivated to serve NPP; you want to do your best.
“Only NPP can improve Ghana. Imagine how much worse it would be if it were NDC. If NDC was in power, the dollar would have reached 48,” he added.
He told the young patriots to stick with the party and government despite the problems and to avoid fighting with each other and being mean to each other, which could hurt the party's chances of breaking the 8.
No one in TESCON should have doubts about 2024. He said it was better to be the gardener for the ruling party than the landlord for the opposition.
