Ghana Is Currently Sick, We Need To Swallow Bitter Pills To Get Better
National Organizer of the ruling National
Democratic Congress (NDC), Kofi Adams is pleading
with Ghanaians to keep faith with President John
Dramani Mahama and the NDC government in the face
of the current tariff increment.

According to him, the policies of the Mahama-led
administration are not meant to punish Ghanaians
but rather to prepare the grounds for better
future as so many infrastructural developments
which have been accomplished are propensity for a
better tomorrow.

Speaking on Okay Fm’s Ade Akye Abia Morning
Show, Kofi Adams admitted that Ghanaians are
currently taking bitter pills but assured they are
meant to foster better days ahead.

“The NDC government has done a lot of hard work
to put the country on the track of relief, but in
this process there are bound to be difficult
moments and the most affected are those of us in
government as we are in an election year,” he
stated.

“Ghana is currently sick and we need to swallow
bitter pills to get better, and we should know
that the more we swallow the pills the more bitter
we feel but they are meant to make us feel
better…we are rather giving a better future to
Ghanaians by passing through this ordeal now,”
he assured.

He however urged Ghanaians not to consider
changing the NDC government for another political
party on the promises of sweet policies;
indicating that Ghanaians will give up this
endurance the moment the country is at the point
of recovering from the hardship.

He reminded Ghanaians that President Mahama and
his government have no intention to make the
citizens go through hardship, but added that Ghana
has gotten to a stage where the nation should take
further responsibility to come out completely from
the hardship.

“We will plead with Ghanaians not to make a
mistake because some people may say our policies
are not good and it is intentional, but it is
something we have to go through to better our
lives very soon . . . we are not punishing
Ghanaians but rather preparing a better future for
them,” he stressed.
