Audio Attachment: Listen to Samuel Ofosu Ampofo |
NDC National Vice Chairman Samuel Ofosu Ampofo has chided President Nana Akufo-Addo for preaching virtue to Ghanaians while he practices vice.
Contributing to a panel discusson on Peace FM's Kokrokoo, Mr. Ofosu Ampofo, who was obviously unhappy about the President's disposition stated categorically that he has turned himself into a "walking contradiction".
According to him, the President has been undertaking activities that he delightfully spoke against when he and the NPP were in opposition. After being voted for by Ghanaians and gaining power, Mr. Ofosu Ampofo noted the President is on a mission to operate a "family and friends" government; the very principle he preached against to win the hearts of Ghanaians during the 2016 elections.
Critics of the current administration have on numerous occasions, expressed outrage over the appointment of what they term a “family and friends government”, claiming that out of 40 sector ministers he appointed, nineteen are his blood relations and or allies in the Ashanti and Eastern region.
They further alleged that the "family and friends" criterion for appointing Ministers was also extended to the appointment of deputy Ministers, Chief Executives and board members among others.
At a press conference early last year, National Chairman of the PPP, Nii Allotey Brew-Hammond, said President Nana Akufo-Addo’s has reneged on his campaign promise to establish an all-inclusive government.
Recently, both Central Regional Chairman of the NDC, Bernard Allotey Jacobs, and Former NDC Member of Parliament for the Nanton constituency, Murtala Mohammed, condemned the president for leading a ‘family and friends’ government, claiming "ex-girlfriends and even unborn babies are grabbing juicy appointments."
Mr Ofosu Ampofo therefore noted that President Akufo-Addo simply wanted to accede to the Presidential seat and so deceived Ghanaians to get their acceptance.
“President Akufo Addo says one thing and does the opposite, he said he’ll not form a government of family and friends, but he’s done worse in the history of this country. He’s a walking contradiction. He’s not been able to live by his words and that is very bad", he said.

Christians must make a difference in politics too. How can a church elder say things like these when he know very well they are not true, but for politics. ooooo shamee
they say he is a church elder... because of politics he cannot reason.
This is clearly a despirate Propaganda.NDC as a political Party has lost credibility and lacks competence. It has a big Leadership deficit and ideas in terms of political will, boldness and ability to formulate policy guidelines. You see, if you have a four-year term of Governance to account to the electrorates for a further 4 year, then, you hardly have the space to operate so well that your efforts in terms of both positve macro/micro economic indicators, are felt in the pockets of the electorates in this short time. Unless alongside with bold social interventions like Free SHS, School feeding Programm, NHS and what have you. Please note that afore mentioned examples are mainly akin to NPP-Administrations.At this juncture, I would affectionately advice NPP at least to accomplish a moderate 20% of its Projects, to accord her the political space to transform the economy of Ghana as she has boldly set to achieve. Then, the Projects are big and so ambitious that in her first term, solid 20% of it's accomplishment can buy her the politcal space of good will to continue for further 20 years.
Who said Ofosu Ampofo is a church Elder. Please its never true. Nobody should align him to any responsible church in this country. He rose through political lines to become rich. Taking advantage of the ordinary tax payer to enrich himself. He should thank Rawlings for bringing him up into Ghanaian politics. Awiii Ofosu Amponfo. Fooollliissshh man
MR OFOSU AMPOFO ARE YOU REALLY AN ELDER OF THE CHURCH OF PENTECOST? ARE YOU TRULLY A BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN?MR AMPOFO DO YOU KNOW IT IS GOOD TO HONOUR THE ELDERLY?PUTTING ALL ASIDE NANA ADDO CAN BE YOUR FATHER, OR MAY BE YOUR GHREAT UNCLE WHY ALWAYS ATTACK HIM WITH INSULTS? THIS IS WHAT NDC DID AND LOST THE 2016 POOLS.MR AMPOFO I WANT TO REMIND YOU THAT YOU ARE AN ELDER DONT FORGET YOUR BIBLE FOR POLITIC SAKE.YOU WILL BE JUDGE BY YOUR WORDS SOON BEFORE THE LORD YOUR GOD.
You are funny
I would expect the NDC to change their strategy than these kinds of attacks. They did this in 2008 and won narrowly at the polls so they think that's the way to go. Ghanaian voters want issue based discussions and not these kinds of attacks. For all they know, Nana Addo is popular among the electorate. It would be better to talk about alternative programs and ways of doing things. Merely attacking the incumbent won't win the NDC more votes beyond their 44.4% base
HE IS THE WORST PRESIDENT IN THE EYES OF THE L-O-O-T-I-N-G BR-I-G-A-D-E BECAUSE ALL THE LOOPHOLES HAS BEEN BLOCKED WITH SUPER GLUE MIXED WITH HARD CEMENT. THE BUSINESS OF STEALING IS DEFINITELY DYING IN POLITICS. THE PROFESSIONALS AMONG THE N.D.C ARE BACK WORKING AND EARNING DECENT LIVING. WHAT IS LEFT ARE THE RIFF-RAFFS AND THE LOSERS ARE THE ONES CRYING BLOOD. THE LIKES OF OFOSU AMPOFO, KOJO ADU ASARE,KOKU ANYIDOHO, KWAKU BOAHEN,SAMMY GYAMFI(MR. NOSE), BROGYA GYAMFI AND YAMINS OF THIS WORLD ARE DYING OF HUNGER BECAUSE INFLATED CONTRACTS ARE NO MORE,PERIOD.
When it comes to rating of WORST president, your Mahama takes the crown hands down. He’s got no competition. He’s the worst nightmare that ever happened to Ghana. Now after losing miserably, he’s now going round saying there were some “irregularities” that’s why he lost. Can u imagine this? As for this bafuuun called Ofosu Ampofo, I won’t even waste my breath. Samiaa
Yeah we know nana is worst president ever,but mahama will never get to be president again.he will lose big time come 2020
