The Communications Director of the (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah, has accused the -led administration of using political tactics to divert attention from the government's inefficiency.

In a post shared on the social media platform X on Wednesday, May 28, 2025, Ahiagbah expressed concern over what he described as a calculated effort by the NDC to shift the national conversation away from the pressing issues facing ordinary Ghanaians to the intimidation of political opponents. "President Mahama and the NDC are employing diversionary tactics to deflect attention from the bread-and-butter issues of the day.

They promised a 24-hour economy but are instead delivering 24-hour intimidation of political opponents," he wrote.

Ahiagbah suggested that instead of prioritising solutions to everyday challenges such as unemployment, high living costs, and income insecurity, the Mahama-led government is adopting strategies that intimidate political opponents and create an atmosphere of fear. "Holding people accountable should not be used as a cover-up for this government's inefficiency.
