Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, a prominent member of the New Patriotic Party, has declared his retirement from domestic politics due to the fact that NPP officials have failed to trumpet the government’s achievements.
The attorney voiced his dissatisfaction with the NPP’s failure to adequately convey its recent accomplishments in an interview with Asaase Radio.
Otchere-Darko commended the government of Akufo-Addo for making significant strides in navigating the difficult economic environment in 2021 and 2022.
He emphasized that, in spite of the dire economic conditions of the time, the administration’s numerous initiatives had been successful in keeping Ghanaians out of line for necessities.
“I have retired from domestic politics,” Otchere-Darko said, adding that the failure of NPP officials to trumpet the government’s achievements is extremely frustrating.
“I get somehow frustrated by the narratives, and the big disappointment I have is with the governing New Patriotic Party itself, it is the lack of recognition of the work that they have done. For me, it’s a major disappointment…there is one thing we must admit, 2022 was extremely difficult, 2021 to 2022 was extremely difficult.
“You know when there are crises, there are people who benefit from crisis but I don’t know who benefitted from the crisis of 2022. The Banks suffered, retailers suffered, manufacturers suffered, I mean it was everywhere,” he added.
