The Member of Parliament (MP) for Ningo Prampram, Sam Nartey George has reiterated his belief in a ‘resurgent and more focused’ former President John Mahama ahead of the 2020 general election.
According to him, the changing circumstances of life, as well as the shortcomings of the Nana Akufo-Addo-led administration, had resulted in the public yearning for the former president’s comeback.
Mr George maintained that former President Mahama had gone through the mill to become a refined politician saying “this Mahama is one who has been toughened by the vicissitude of life, by the shock of an electoral defeat, by the fact that we may have taken certain things for granted in the past.
“Now,
he’s realised that every minute counts, people are seeing it, if you look at
his communications, listen to his language, and you listen to the things he
says you will realise that he has become a more focused Mahama, he knows what
he is about, he’s got an unfinished business, he feels partly responsible for
the hardships the citizenry are going through.
“The increasing sense of insecurity in the
country resulting in the kidnapped girls issue and the brutal assassination of
the Marketing and Public Relations Manager of the Tema Port, Josephine Asante,
Tiger Eye PI investigative journalist Ahmed Hussein- Suale, and Joseph Migal
Jinjer, a senior staff of the Ghana Water Company Limited as reasons why the
current government has failed Ghanaians.
“Although the idea behind the decision is a
good one, the government’s mode of
implementation on the closed fishing season lacks the expertise, the only way
this ban will be effective is if it’s an Economic Community of West African
States (ECOWAS) decision, across the borders.
“That way the fish can replenish stock, they are disenfranchising Ghanaian local fishermen for Togolese fishermen, it is not a bad idea to be strict, however, the implementation is the problem of this government, they claim they have the men but we’ve realized that they don’t even have boys,” Mr George bemoaned
