Member of Parliament for Old Tafo Pankrono, Ekow Vincent Assafuah has described the present government as a backward administration.
He is of the view that the government hasn’t been fair to the people who have had to lose their jobs to no fault of theirs.
Ekow Vincent Assafuah made this known in a post shared via social media.
“Ghana cannot afford this backward leadership. A government that revokes opportunities instead of creating them is not a government of the people. A government that destroys instead of building does not deserve your trust,” he said.
The young Member of Parliament is worried that Ghana now has a government that wants to undo the progress achieved over the years.
“What we have now is a leadership that would rather rewrite history than write the future. A leadership that wants to undo progress simply because they did not initiate it. A leadership that inherited solutions but is choosing problems. Today, we hear more blame than bold action. More reversals than reforms. More political talk than transformational governance.”

Ghana at the Brink: A cry for Restoration and Hope!
Fellow Ghanaians, we are a people with a history of resilience, vision, and progress. We have seen the highs of leadership that builds and the lows of leadership that destroys. We have tasted the fruits of bold, transformational governance, and we have also felt the weight of indecision and misplaced priorities. Today, we must ask ourselves: which path do we want for Ghana?
Not long ago, under the New Patriotic Party (NPP), we embarked on a journey of national rebirth, one rooted in economic revitalization, industrialization, and education for all. We were not just dreaming; we were achieving. We saw the rise of factories under the One District, One Factory (1D1F) initiative, which created thousands of jobs and transformed local economies.
We witnessed the power of digital innovation as the Ghana Card and mobile money interoperability positioned us as a leader in Africa’s technological revolution. We removed financial barriers in education, ensuring that every Ghanaian child, rich or poor, had a seat in the classroom through Free SHS.
We were building a future, not just managing the present.
And beyond this, we created jobs, real jobs, not promises. Our administration rolled out initiatives that empowered the youth, from the Nation Builders Corps (NABCO) to NEIP (National Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programme), ensuring that thousands of Ghanaians had opportunities to work, grow, and contribute to our economy. But what have we seen in just a few months under this new administration?
Over 10,000 hardworking Ghanaian youth have been left stranded, jobless, and hopeless because the new government has revoked their appointments
These are young people who had secured their future, who had started building their lives, and who were contributing to our national development. What kind of leadership deliberately takes away jobs in an economy where unemployment is already high?
The effects of these decisions are devastating:
1. Families are suffering: Parents who depend on their children’s income to survive are now left struggling.
2. Businesses are collapsing: When incomes are taken away, spending declines, and the private sector suffers.
3.Crime and social instability will rise: When young people have no jobs and no opportunities, desperation takes over.
Ghana cannot afford this backward leadership. A government that revokes opportunities instead of creating them is not a government of the people. A government that destroys instead of building does not deserve your trust.
What we have now is a leadership that would rather rewrite history than write the future. A leadership that wants to undo progress simply because they did not initiate it. A leadership that inherited solutions but is choosing problems. Today, we hear more blame than bold action. More reversals than reforms. More political talk than transformational governance.
Ghana cannot afford to move backward. We are not a nation that watches while its dreams are dismantled. We are not a people who settle for mediocrity when we have seen excellence. We must not stand by as progress is sacrificed at the altar of political expediency.
The NPP built a Ghana of possibilities, and the evidence is everywhere. We created jobs, we industrialized, we digitized, we educated, and we laid the foundation for a great future. That future does not have to be lost.
But it is slipping away!
So, I ask you, fellow Ghanaians, if today you feel that Ghana was on a better path just a short time ago, if you miss the leadership that delivered real change, if you want to see our nation rise again, then you already know what must be done.
We built before. And when the time comes, we will build again. Bigger, stronger, and unstoppable.
Yours in unwavering service to democracy,
Hon.Vincent Ekow Assafuah, Esq.
Member of Parliament, Old Tafo Constituency.
