Former Attorney General and diplomat Nii Ayikoi Otoo has questioned the credibility of former President John Mahama's 120-day social contract, dismissing it as a campaign tactic rather than a realistic policy commitment.
Speaking on The Forum on Asaase Radio, Otoo described the widely publicised pledge as part of the theatrics that typically accompany political seasons. "In politics, especially when it comes to campaign, you have to sell yourself to the voting population. "There are things people say to woo the electorate to their side.
The 120-day social contract and what he [Mahama] would do in his first 100 days are all part of the gimmick of politicking," he stated.
Otoo further pointed out that even in past administrations, early appointments and implementations rarely happened as swiftly as promised.
