Nana Boakye Blasts Rising Utility Tariffs

- Henry Nana Boakye says NDC has failed to deliver on promises
- Rising electricity and water tariffs described as heavy burden on citizens
- Criticism of former Chief Justice’s removal and targeting of Electoral Commission Chair
The National Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Henry Nana Boakye, has criticised the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government, accusing it of failing to fulfill its promises after one year in office.
He claimed the administration has worsened living conditions for Ghanaians and undermined key democratic institutions.
Speaking to the media, Nana Boakye expressed concern over the sharp rise in electricity and water tariffs, describing them as a heavy burden on ordinary citizens.
He also criticised the government’s handling of illegal mining, known locally as galamsey, alleging that some NDC officials have been linked to these illicit activities.
The NPP national organiser further condemned what he called the politically motivated removal of the former Chief Justice and efforts to weaken the independence of the Electoral Commission by targeting its Chair.
According to him, such actions, if left unchecked, threaten the integrity of Ghana’s democratic institutions and the rule of law.
Nana Boakye urged the government to be accountable and focus on delivering tangible improvements to citizens’ lives, stressing that public patience is not limitless.
He emphasised that transparency, good governance, and the protection of institutional independence are essential for maintaining public trust in government.
His comments come as the NDC government faces increasing scrutiny on its first anniversary in office.
