Tamale North Member of Parliament (MP), Alhassan Suhuyini, has called for reflection and responsibility following the recent electoral victory of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
This follows the NDC’s decisive win in the presidential and parliamentary elections.
Speaking on The Big Issue on Channel One TV on Saturday, Suhuyini emphasised the need to understand the significant responsibility placed on President-elect John Dramani Mahama and the NDC.
“It is a victory that requires reflection. The funfair should be over by now. We need to understand the level of responsibility that has been placed on His Excellency the President’s shoulders and by extension the shoulders of the NDC.
“The margin of victory should not let us lose sight of the fact that expectation is also that high,” Suhuyini stated.
He further criticized the New Patriotic Party (NPP) for its poor governance, which he believes provoked the electorate and led to the NDC’s endorsement.
“Yes, the NPP was abysmal in government. Their style of leadership in many instances provoked people and I am sure it is that provocation that has manifested in the endorsement that the NDC got,” he added.
