President Mahama, You Promised Us Change, But Where Is It? - A Nigerian Lady to Mahama

A Nigerian woman living in Ghana has shared her candid concerns in a heartfelt video message. In the video, she recounted the promises President Mahama made during his 2024 election campaign.

She highlights the harsh realities many citizens and residents are facing under the current administration.

These are her unfiltered words to President Mahama, urging him to step up and deliver on his promises to the people of Ghana, including foreigners living in the country as he campaigned in 2024.

Mr. President, you promised us change, but so far, I am not seeing any. Not a single positive change.

The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has increased its tariffs dramatically. Now, when you buy GH¢100 worth of electricity credit, it barely lasts five days. Many households are now spending between GH¢500 and GH¢600 on electricity bills every month.

On top of that, the price of sachet water (pure water) has gone up from 50 pesewas to 70 pesewas. Transport fares are also rising steadily. Even basic sanitary pads, which used to cost GH¢16, now sell for GH¢23. These increases are making life extremely difficult for ordinary people.

To make matters worse, we are experiencing severe power outages, especially in Kasoa. For the past two days, there has been no stable electricity. As a student, I need light to study at night, but dumsor has made that almost impossible. All the food I prepared and stored in the fridge has gone bad because of the constant power cuts.

Mr. President, this is not the change you promised us. We are struggling with higher costs of living, unstable electricity, and deteriorating basic services.

We are watching and waiting for the real change you promised.

The video has sparked strong reactions, with many Ghanaians calling for her immediate deportation. Critics have pointed out that she migrated from Nigeria to Ghana and is now telling President Mahama what to do.

President Mahama has come under fire once again as citizens question the pace of change. This follows similar debates around the 7000 teacher recruitment exercise defended by Haruna Iddrisu and the recent GTEC decision to freeze new institutional registrations. Meanwhile, security concerns continue, as seen in the case of the mortician arrested for using a dead person’s leg as a walking stick.
