Current Government Has No Solutions – Mr. Adel Umar Ibrahim
Adel Ibn Umar has criticized the NPP for their lack of solutions for the country.
Mr. Adel referencing Kojo Oppong Nkrumah’s recent statement: “Ghana needs a leader with solutions.” To Mr. Adel, this admission suggests a deeper problem within the NPP government.
He argued, “This statement ‘We need a leader with solutions’ means that they agree to the fact that the current government (NPP) does not have any solutions.” This bold interpretation framed the NPP as a party struggling to address the country’s challenges effectively.
Mr. Speaker, however, quickly challenged this notion, questioning whether Mr. Adel was twisting the statement to fit his narrative. “Are you the one twisting it to give it a different meaning?” he asked, emphasizing that Kojo Oppong Nkrumah’s statement could simply mean that Ghana needs a leader who can solve current and future problems, not necessarily that the current government is without solutions.
The debate didn’t stop there. Mr. Adel further criticized the NPP, pointing out a recent comment by actor and NPP supporter, Prince David Osei, who mistakenly mentioned that voting would take place on November 7th.
According to Mr. Adel, Prince David Osei said, “We’re going to vote for change,” which confused Mr. Adel since the NPP is currently in power. He sarcastically questioned, “If NDC was in power and they said they’re going to vote for change, I would understand, but NPP is the one in power. And during NPP’s manifesto launch, they said they’re going to vote for change, then we’re changing from President Nana Akuffo Addo to who? That’s sad on their path.”
The conversation then shifted to a comparison between the NPP’s manifesto launch and the NDC’s recent Youth Manifesto launch at UPSA. Mr. Adel praised the NDC youth for their clarity and passion, contrasting it with what he described as the lackluster performance of the Vice President during the NPP’s manifesto launch.
“Even though he had a script and was speaking, there was no enthusiasm. He didn’t have the courage and enthusiasm to speak to the people of Ghana,” Mr. Adel remarked.
To further illustrate his point, Mr. Adel brought up the controversial Mining and Minerals Act of 2006, passed under former President Kufuor’s administration. He highlighted a provision under Section 17 that allows holders of mineral rights to use water resources for mining operations, describing it as “totally unacceptable.”
