Aspiring National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and former Greater Accra Regional Minister, Daniel Nii Kwartei Titus-Glover, has criticised the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government over what he described as its failure to improve the living conditions of Ghanaians.
Speaking during an interview on Tuesday, September 15, Titus-Glover accused the NDC of making promises during the 2024 general election campaign that, in his view, have not translated into significant improvements for citizens.
He claimed that the cost of utilities and doing business remained a concern despite government statements about the performance of the Ghanaian cedi against the US dollar.
Titus-Glover also questioned the impact of some government programmes, including the Adwumawura initiative, the agricultural transformation agenda and the 24-hour economy.
He particularly demanded clarity on the implementation of the 24-hour economy, asking what tangible results the programme had produced since it was introduced as a major job creation policy.
The former regional minister further criticised the government’s handling of illegal mining, popularly known as galamsey. He alleged that the activity continued to affect vegetation and water bodies.
He also raised concerns about payments to cocoa farmers and falling cashew prices in parts of the Bono Region, arguing that such challenges could discourage people from farming.
On education, Titus-Glover criticised the management of the Free Senior High School (Free SHS) programme. He expressed concern about the quality of food being served to students under the programme.
His comments come as he campaigns for the position of NPP National Organiser ahead of the party’s internal elections.
Recent comments by Titus-Glover have also focused on rebuilding the party’s grassroots structures and preparing it for the 2028 elections.
He said the NPP would take its time to reorganise and rebuild the party before seeking a return to government.
“NPP, we are coming. We will take our time,” he said.
