The Deputy Central Regional Organizer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Hon. Joseph Abakah, who also serves as the Head of Operations for Micro Enterprises at the Agricultural Development Bank (ADB), has lauded President John Dramani Mahama for his exceptional leadership and unwavering commitment to Ghana’s economic recovery.

In an exclusive interaction, Hon. Abakah expressed deep admiration for President Mahama’s efforts to stabilize the Ghanaian economy, which he described as severely mismanaged by the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration. He noted that Mahama's vision and dedication have rekindled hope among Ghanaians and NDC supporters alike.

“I have no regret for working my heart out to help the NDC return to power in 2024,” Hon. Abakah stated, emphasizing the importance of perseverance, hard work, and self-esteem. He urged party executives and supporters to exercise patience in their expectations, warning that impatience could lead to setbacks.

The ADB official also expressed concern for the youth and encouraged them to take advantage of the government’s flagship initiatives such as the Ejumawura program. According to him, these programs offer promising opportunities for empowerment and job creation.

Hon. Abakah concluded the meeting with a heartfelt message of appreciation to President Mahama for the trust and confidence reposed in him and the Managing Director of ADB, Hon. Ato Sarpong. He credited their support for his appointment at the bank, describing Mahama as a visionary leader who is committed to ensuring that all party executives benefit from his administration.

He called on all government appointees to maintain open communication with party executives, create job opportunities, and prioritize their welfare.

“Mr. Abakah’s dedication to the party and the nation is commendable,” Wiseman Castro wrote, adding, “I wish him well in his new role and future endeavors.”
