NPP Lady Slams Voters as Forgetful After Mahama's Victory
A young supporter of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has expressed her disappointment in a self-recorded video after Ghanaians voted for John Dramani Mahama as president once again. The video, which has since gone viral, captures the lady’s frustration and sharp criticism of the decision by the electorate.
In her remarks, the visibly upset NPP supporter criticized Ghanaians for what she perceived as a lack of judgment in re-electing Mahama. She lamented that despite issues such as dumsor (frequent power outages), allegations of corruption, and claims of excessive spending on his mistresses during his previous tenure, many citizens still chose to vote him back into power.
The lady did not hold back in her critique, describing the majority of voters as people with “short memories.” She argued that Ghanaians had seemingly forgotten the hardships and challenges experienced during Mahama’s earlier administration. Her words echoed the concerns of some NPP supporters who believe that the former president’s return could reverse the progress made under the Akufo-Addo government.
Towards the end of the video, the disappointed lady expressed fears that the country might experience the return of dumsor, a term that became synonymous with Mahama’s presidency due to the persistent power supply issues during that time. She indicated that the possibility of revisiting those dark days was a source of anxiety for her and likely for others who opposed Mahama’s comeback.
The video has sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some users sympathizing with her concerns, while others criticized her for dismissing the democratic choice of the majority. Supporters of John Mahama, on the other hand, have hailed his victory as a second chance for the former president to implement his vision for Ghana and address the country’s pressing challenges.
As emotions run high in the aftermath of the election, the young lady’s video serves as a reflection of the deep divide among Ghanaians over the results. While some celebrate Mahama’s return, others, like this NPP supporter, view it with apprehension, fearing a repeat of the struggles they associate with his previous tenure. The discourse around the election results continues to dominate public conversations as Ghanaians prepare for the new administration.
