placements. He argued that the false statement was a calculated attempt to damage the party’s reputation and clarified that the NDC has no intention of interfering in the current recruitment processes.
Addressing the poliktical climate, Mr. Gibril. suggested that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) is attempting to shift the public narrative after failing to gain political leverage regarding cocoa price issues.

Commenting on the situation, Mr. Gibril stated:
Kj”The NPP should not even be talking about this because its presidential candidate has promised to give party coordinators jobs. We don’t have the time to waste on this needless fake story. Also, the NPP has failed in making political capital out of the cocoa-related issues, and so they have decided to fabricate these false stories.”
In an interview with host Kwabena Agyapong, he urged Ghanaians to view the NPP’s claims with skepticism, suggesting the opposition has little to offer the nation’s development.
