We accept IMANI’s critique of our promises – NDC The ruling NDC has welcome IMANI Africa’s
evaluation of the various promises they are making
ahead of the December 7 polls.
IMANI in its latest report has analyzed the
various campaign promises being made by the
political parties ahead of the December polls.
According to the policy think tank, most of the
promises being made are not feasible.
For instance, it says out of the 29 promises made
by the opposition New Patriotic Party so far, only
one is feasible and carefully planned.
“Only one out of the 29 promises made by the
NPP is quantifiable, 14, semi-quantifiable and 14
non-quantifiable,” the report said. It also
noted that out of the 20 promises made by the NDC,
just a few are feasible.
The assessment has been criticised by the NPP who
have described it as a hasty and an unfair
conclusion on their plans by IMANI.
Commenting on the issue, the spokesperson for the
NDC campaign Joyce Mogtari Bawa told Nii Arday
Clegg on the Morning Starr that the NDC will
consider the reviews by the policy think.
“We accept the report from IMANI Africa and we
promise to work with them as we go along. But we
should also look at the basis for which political
parties make such promises, I believe each time a
political party puts anything in its manifesto,
they have a reason for doing so”. Source - Starrfmonline.com
