Joyce Bawa Mogtari Blames NDC MPs for Betraying Ghanaians in Parliament

In a scathing attack on the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Members of Parliament, Joyce Bawa Mogtari, former deputy minister of transport and aide to former president John Dramani Mahama, has accused them of betraying the interests of Ghanaians.

Mrs. Mogtari expressed shock at the recent turn of events where President Nana Addo's ministerial nominees were approved through voting in parliament, despite the party's strong warning against it.

Speaking on Pan African television's "Alhaji and Alhaji" show, Mrs. Mogtari stressed the importance of holding MPs accountable for their actions, stating, "We must call out all those who betrayed the course of the great NDC; let's stop shielding people who do wrong." Mrs. Mogtari's comments highlight the growing frustration within the party, which has struggled to regain power since losing the 2016 presidential election to Akufo Addo.

The NDC's failure to prevent the approval of Akufo Addo's ministerial nominees has been seen by many as a major setback for the party, which had hoped to use the vetting process to put pressure on the government to downsize its administration. The party had argued that the size of the government was bloated and unsustainable, and that downsizing was necessary to save taxpayers' money.

Parliament after hours of voting approved the nomination of the new ministers appointed by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo. The NDC asked all its MPs not to support the approval of the nominees. But after a secret vote, all the nominees were approved despite the absence of three MPs from the majority side in Parliament.

IN A POLITICAL SPHERE FULL OF UNCERTAINTIES: THE ONLY SURE THING IS “ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE INTENTIONS...By YAKUBU HUSEIN PUMAYA YAKUBU HUSEIN PUMAYA As a fresher, I got attracted to any aspirant who was bold enough to speak to me. In my mind, the best form of bravery was the ability to speak to strangers; that was what I considered to be the hallmark of a true leader. If more than one aspirant spoke to me, I considered the one who was more fluent to be the best candidate. In effect, my opinion of whom a good leader is, was based on his/her ability to speak good English. When I was a fresher, I remember telling one of my seniors that I thought a particular candidate was going to win. He asked me why, and I answered proudly, “because he was the first to come to my class and he spoke perfect English”. He laughed at me and said, “Small boys are young”. After 3 years on campus, it has become clear that I was indeed small and young. I have learnt that ...
