Dela Edem, a member of the communications team for John Dramani Mahama, has labeled criticism of the presidential jet as hypocritical. He stated this during a discussion on Adom FM.
Edem argued that it is unfair for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to criticize issues related to the presidential jet. He believes this is especially true given what he described as eight years of poor governance by the NPP.
According to Edem, questioning the presidential jet after such a period of perceived failed governance is misplaced. He suggested that the focus should be on the broader governance record.
Edem's comments came in response to ongoing discussions and criticisms surrounding the use and condition of the presidential aircraft.
He implied that the NPP's current stance on the presidential jet overlooks their own performance during their time in office.
The discussion highlighted differing perspectives on accountability and governance standards in public office.
