He explained that the Akufo-Addo-led government is gradually becoming unpopular because of some policies rolled out which are not in the favour of the citizenry. Speaking on Akoma FM‘s political show, Dr. Amakye Boateng said the several backlashes on government will contribute to their loss in the elections. He said, “The NPP will lose elections should it be held today because the government is gradually becoming unpopular due to some inconsiderate decisions and policies that have attracted backlashes from the masses, so naturally such decisions are weighing the government down into opposition”. The senior lecturer cited the growing insecurity and the high unemployment rate in the country as some examples to buttress his claim.
