Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has accused the Mahama-led government of focusing more on political revenge than effective governance.

Speaking on Tuesday, March 25, after the debate on the 2025 Budget Statement, he claimed that the government is using law enforcement to target its opponents instead of following due process.

"All you know is persecution. Instead of focusing on the economy and the welfare of Ghanaians, you have chosen to hunt down political opponents," he stated.

He further contended that the government’s handling of legal matters against former officials is characterised by bias and a disregard for fairness.

“Justice must be pursued without malice or political interference. What we are witnessing is a clear attempt to weaponise state institutions against those who disagree with the government,” Afenyo-Markin asserted.

The Minority Leader called on the government to focus on policies that tackle Ghana’s economic challenges instead of using politics to create divisions.

He cautioned that this strategy would only increase political tensions and weaken the country’s democracy.
