Former President John Dramani Mahama says the hardship in Ghana under the current New Patriotic Party (NPP) government has reached very unbearable levels that even their supporters are complaining.
He said NPP sympathisers are complaining louder than National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters currently.
For him, the only way to bringing the growing hardship to an end is to vote the NDC back into office in 2020.
Former President Mahama made these remarks on Friday while addressing NDC constituency executives at Hemang Lower Denkyira as part of his tour of the Central Region.
It was Day Three of his tour.
He is campaigning ahead of NDC’s presidential primary of December 7, 2018.
Mr Mahama said the recent fuel price hikes have rather made standard of living worse for the average Ghanaian.
He explained that when the NDC was in government, a gallon of petroleum was sold at GH¢14 at the pumps and Ghanaians were complaining then.
Now, it is GH¢25 and still going, he said in local language Twi.
There is hardship in the country, he stressed, and it is not even NDC supporters who are complaining.
For him, the NPP resorted to lies and falsehood to win power in the last general elections and they have been exposed.
He analogised that if a guy woos a lady based on lies and falsehood and wins her heart, that cannot be resorted to again if the guy brings the lady home.
She will get to know that all that you said were lies, he said, casting insinuations at the NPP.

For the whole former President of Ghana to say 'Even NPP Supporters are Complaining About Hardship in Ghana' baffles me and it is siiiily. Why shouldn't they say so when, if indeed, there is a hardship in Ghana? Hardship has no party colors and doesn't differentiate by one's affiliation to a particular party, Christian domination, gender and tribe. Hence, it is neutral to these attributes. To have the mindset to make such a statement of a kind, coming from not a foot soldier of a political party but from a former President is very, very problematic. Please, don't forget, that expression or language externalizes our thoughts. Asem s€ b€!
Who advised this man to be humiliating himself like that? and who told him Ghanaians want him back? if really John mahama can't think for himself then he has a real problem . I can't believe this man couldn't read along the lines Ghanaians don't like him,hence his humiliating defeat unprecedented and what does he think has changed for him to think he will win 2020? has Ghanaians forgotten about the dumsor?has Ghanaians forgotten about the gyeeda,sada,suba nkomfem fly away to Burkina? has Ghanaians forgotten about the bus branding? has Ghanaians forgotten about the Ford Expedition bribe which landed the Burkinabe inflated contract to construct the Eastern corridor roads,Mr Mahama go to from Kejeji to Kwame Dansokrom that container used as culvert on a river and you will see the harm you did to this nation and you taking Ghanaians for granted, pray to win the flagbearer position for your party and we are waiting for you ! Ghanaians have seen your container culvert and the NPP ROAD construction and the 2 will be compared in 2020, if Ghanaians want the Gonja mafia to operate Ghana like a casino or want progress and prosperity for the country Ghana to move on like Singapore! We live to see, but don't try your human sacrifices on President JJ RAWLINGS because he is tougher than you and make sure you don't trespass into NPP lane!
You and your corrupt amambuo ie governance is hugely part of why we in this mess. It doesn’t take just 4yrs to correct the mess you and your cohorts left behind. We won’t allow u to come and set us back again and cover up for someone to come and inherit your stuuupidities. Jj left not too bad a situation for kuffour to inherit, hence why kuffour was able to do what he did. But same can’t be said your sorry greedy arrsss. I pray gbabin wins the flagbearership. Pathetic excuse and a hypocrite
Yes we are complaining because we are not spectators. Even Prez. Akuffo has accepted that times are hard. At least he's not persistently lying to us. Me personally, I'm very relieved you're not in power. Please gerrrrouuut and leave us alone! You shall be embarrassed even more in 2020.
THE HARDSHIP IN GHANA, YOU MAHAMA YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THE HARDSHIP IN GHANA. HOW POSSIBLE DID YOU MAHAMA GET MONEY TO BUY 135 ARTICULATORS TRUCKS HIDDEN IN BURKINA FASO. THESE TRUCKS DOES NOT COME TO GHANA. MAHAMA CHALLENGE ME IF THIS NOT TRUE. ALL THESE TRUCKS ARE MAN DIESEL LIGHT BLUE COLOUR. MAHAMA YOU ARE ***barred word*** AND YOU ARE GOING TO LOSE AND LOSE FOREVER AND EVER.
Mr. Former President, you a re a pathologically liar. When you were leaving office the price of petrol was Gh¢18.36 and not the Gh¢14 you were talking about. This your lies will never bring you to power again. Ghanaians are fed up with you. but, if not, for greediness on your part you should allow a new face from your party to lead NDC for victory in 2048. Mr. Pathologically liar and greedy.
We have not forgotten the many years of dumsor we endured and the massive corruption during your tenure. You will never come close to the Presidency again. Your time is expired
Which NPP supporters? Nyaho Tamakloe and group with Paul Afoko?
