Resign if you cannot govern Ghana – Nyaho-Tamakloe tells Akufo-Addo

Dr. Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, a founding member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has called on President Nana Akufo-Addo to consider resignation if he is unable to effectively govern the nation.

In an address at a press conference organised by ex-military officers on the topic, “The State of Ghana Today,” Dr. Nyaho-Tamakloe highlighted the distressing prevalence of perceived corruption among political officeholders, their unexplained accumulation of wealth, tribalism, nepotism, and a narrow focus on self-interest, particularly within the current administration under President Akufo-Addo.

“In the old age of ours. we don’t sleep soundly at night. Ghana has been riddled with perceived corruption of political public office holders amassing unexplained wealth, tribalism, nepotism and parochial in their interest, especially under this regime under President Akufo-Addo.

“How do Ministers hoard stashes of cash in foreign and local currencies in their homes, acquire properties in prime areas of Accra and other parts of the country, drive the most luxurious cars and live extravagantly and expect our youth who remain largely without meaningful employment to be satisfied.”

“These are critical warning signs going to destroy the security of the state. We need to pay critical attention to this. The Akufo-Addo I knew and had numerous dialogues and demonstrations with is not the Akufo-Addo who is now president.

“If you can’t do the work, resign. Just resign and go away,” Dr Nyaho-Tamakloe stressed.
