An investigative journalist known for his candid commentary on Ghanaian politics, Manasseh Azure Awuni, has expressed his deep disappointment in the country's two leading political parties, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

In a recent statement, Manasseh revealed that his faith in the ability of either party to bring about meaningful change in Ghana has diminished significantly.

He reflected on the optimism he once had, particularly during the 2016 election when Akufo-Addo was vying for the presidency.

"The last I had so much hope that politics could change Ghana was in 2016 when Akufo-Addo was campaigning to be president after almost 8 years under Akufo-Addo. I am sad to say that I don't have hope in the NPP and NDC," he stated.

He pointed out that while corruption and other issues were rampant during the tenure of former President John Mahama, the current administration has done little to instill confidence that things would be different.

"Corruption was bad during John Mahama's time, there was dumsor and all of that and then Akufo-Addo comes Mahama is beginning to look like an angel," he added.

Mahama and Akufo-Addo are like day and night. I thought Mahama was bad based on the indicators, and then Akufo-Addo came and now Mahama is beginning to look like an angel... - Manasseh Azure Awuni (Investigative Journalist / Writer)#StarrChat #StarrFM @starr1035fm #GHOneTV pic.twitter.com/wHJeyDZUzE— GHOne TV (@ghonetv) August 8, 2024
