NDC’s 2025 budget not aligned with party's manifesto: Razak Kojo Opoku

In a recent statement, Razak Kojo Opoku, a member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), criticized the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for its 2025 budget. He argued that the budget does not align with the party's manifesto, suggesting a disconnect between promised policies and actual financial provisions. This misalignment raises concerns about the NDC’s commitment to fulfilling its electoral promises.

Opoku emphasized that effective governance requires coherence between proposed plans and their implementation through budgeting. He pointed out several areas within the budget that contradict the NDC's platform, indicating potential difficulties in achieving their stated objectives. This critique reflects broader issues of accountability and trust in political commitments.

The discussion surrounding the NDC's budget is part of ongoing debates about fiscal responsibility and transparency in governance. As political parties prepare for future elections, ensuring that budgets reflect their manifestos may be crucial in maintaining public confidence and securing voter support. The scrutiny of such financial documents underscores the importance of aligning political rhetoric with actionable policy measures.
