Presidential candidate of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama has accused the ruling government of politicising of premix fuel distribution.
Addressing fisherfolk in Axim, in the Western Region, as part of his “Building the Ghana We Want” tour promised to address concerns raised by the residents.
He was responding to allegations by the residents that they do not get premix fuel for fishing.
Mr. Mahama further slammed the government for collapsing the work of artisanal fishers.
“When we were in power, we set up the landing beach committee, and at that time, anyone could be a member. The premix was distributed judiciously. But now, fuel diversion and mismanagement of the distribution of premix fuel appear to have reached its peak. The NPP government is politicizing the distribution,” he said.
“I know that by God’s grace, the NDC will win the elections, and I promise to improve the fisheries sector if elected in the 2024 polls. I will give you a sector minister who will perform better,” he said.
