A New NDC Government Would Be Better Than The Previous One — Mahama Assures Ghanaians
Former president and flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama has said that when he’s given the nod to lead the country as president in the 2020 polls, the New NDC government would be better than the previous one.
According to Mahama, during his time as president, he worked hard to improve the livelihood of citizens, however, there were some mistakes he committed and wants to come back and correct them.
He lashed the New Patriotic Party (NPP) for halting most of his project as a result of change of power.
“Development takes place in stages. The last time we were in government, it was to improve the road network so we get many of the roads on contract. Unfortunately, because the NDC left office, a lot of these projects came to a standstill. So I can assure Nana that, I am in a unique position because I am the only President who has the opportunity to come back and correct his mistakes. No other President in Ghana can do that. I believe that a new NDC government will be a much better government than the previous one”.

Akufo-Addo’s Lawyers To File Response To Mahama’s Amended Election Petition
Lawyers of President Akufo-Addo have prepared a response to the amended election petition of the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama.
Speaking to Citi news, Henry Nana Boakye, spokesperson for the President’s legal team said the response is in line with a directive by the Supreme Court.
“By the natural sequence of events, once the petitioner has sought the audience of the court to make some amendments in their petition, it is only proper that the respondent also does the same by today. The Supreme Court gave an order that if you have any response to the amended petition, you should file it today.”
He further indicated that the legal team will insist on its preliminary objection for the case to be dismissed.
“They do not have to waste the court’s time on these issues because the facts they have presented do not support their case.”

Afenyo Markin Explains Why NPP MPs Went To Parliament At 4am; Cites Punctuality
Member of Parliament for the Efutu Constituency, Alexander Kwamina Afenyo-Markin, has given justification for the unusual early arrival of Members of Parliament of the NPP caucus to Parliament on Friday.
Members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Caucus in Parliament surprisingly showed up as early as 4am in Parliament today.
Many have suggested they were there to occupy the Majority seat before their opponents NDC arrived.
However, speaking to Asaase Radio, Afenyo Markin explained that the MPs, who are mostly newbies in the house came early to avoid lateness.
I don’t see any controversy arising out of who is sitting where and all that. My understanding is that we have been urged to be punctual, and our first-timers have resolved to seeing to punctuality and ensuring that they take their parliamentary work seriously.”
“Today is our first day of regular sitting and I am pretty sure as you may be aware our colleagues have gotten to the chamber ahead of time to acclimatize themselves, to read their papers, fraternize and prepare for today’s activities and I should think that is in order.”
