The Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Boamah Otokunor, says Ghanaians have been thrust back into slavery under the administration of Nana Akufo-Addo.
Speaking during an interview with GhanaWeb, Otokunor said Ghanaians are under the yoke of oppression from the NPP and require liberation.
He said this would be the NDC’s campaign message in the 2024 elections.
Otokunor said: “It (our message to Ghanaians) is going to be a liberation battle. Because, you see, the people of this country are going through some form of slavery. We are going through another form of colonisation from our very own, under President Akufo-Addo.
“And you know [the] battle against imperialist tendency, battle against colonisation, battle against some form of slavery is no joke,”
“Have you ever seen the currency depreciate in one week from 11 to 15 (against the dollar)? In five days, every day you will go to bed and wake up with a new horizon on your currency depreciation. Have you seen the kind of deterioration such that we cannot even go to the international market to borrow even a dollar?” he queried.
The experienced politician, who is running for the position of General Secretary to replace the outgoing Asiedu Nketia, said if care is not taken, the government would soon be unable to pay salaries of public sector workers.
