'I sold my two taxis for NDC' - Angry supporter blasts party over neglect
Exdoe, a taxi driver, accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) of neglect on Sunday, March 22, 2026, in a post sighted by GhanaWeb. He claimed the party sidelined him after winning the 2024 elections, stating, "From today onwards, I will speak against the NDC because you people are very stingy. After all the work I did, it's you and your families who are enjoying it. I sold two taxi cabs to raise funds for the party's campaign."
His comments reflect growing dissatisfaction among some grassroots supporters who feel left out of the benefits following the party's return to power. Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, the National Chairman of the NDC, appealed to party supporters who are yet to receive appointments to remain calm and patient. Speaking at a meeting in Winneba in the Effutu Constituency on Thursday, February 12, 2026, he explained that it is not possible to appoint all deserving members at once due to constitutional limitations on the number of appointments the president can make. He said, "I am aware that some of you are unhappy because you did not get to be appointed to any position upon our return to power. This is understandable. It is the reason why I am embarking on this 'Thank You Tour' to explain issues for your understanding."
Asiedu Nketiah stressed that the situation is a structural challenge, adding that not all party members can be accommodated at the same time. He added, "The challenge is that, given the number of appointments that the constitution permits President Mahama to make, not all members of the NDC can be taken care of. So be patient. There is no need to be angry with the party." He further urged members to avoid public criticism and instead channel their grievances through internal party structures, noting that constructive engagement remains the best way to resolve concerns within the party.
