The flagbearer of the National Dem­ocratic Congress (NDC), former President John Dramani Mahama, has expressed the party's commit­ment to resetting various inter­ventions and policies, when voted into power in the 2024 General Election, to address severe hard­ships faced by Ghanaians under the Akufo-Addo administration. The former President said that the country was bleeding due to the bad policies of the current Akufo-Addo administration, saying, "Ghana's soul is calling for change! Mother Ghana is calling for its true and genuine patriotic citizens to rise up to reset our beloved nation." Mr Mahama, who was speak­ing at the launch of the NDC's manifesto in Winneba, in the Efutu Constituency of the Central Re­gion on Saturday, said "Ghanaians can take no more of the hardship, the impunity, the state capture, the hypocrisy, the lies, and bad governance that has been inflicted on them over the two terms of this outgoing administration." The launch of the manifesto, which spells out the policies and programmes of the party for the country in the run-up to this year's general election, was attended by senior figures and members of the party as well as traditional leaders and other dignitaries. Former President Mahama alleged that the current adminis­tration had decimated the nation's democracy beyond recognition, as the livelihood of families had been affected, with millions of people pushed beyond the poverty line. He stated that a change in government would pave the way for the vision, experience, and trustworthiness to be restored by an NDC administration after the December presidential and parlia­mentary elections.
