The advocacy group Drivers for Change, which supported President Akufo-2016 Addo’s campaign, has expressed regret for her role in putting Akufo-Addo into office.
The difficulties Yaw Barimah and his group members are currently facing under Nana Akufo-Addo are greater than those they complained about under John Mahama, according to Yaw Barimah, who created the organization to promote Nana Akufo-Addo and the NPP in response to the hardships under Mahama.
Yaw Barimah begged Ghanaians to forgive him while kneeling among the demonstrators that filled Kwame Nkrumah Circle for the Arise Ghana Demonstrations.
“I am the organization’s founder. I drove Akufo-Addo to the Kalyppo stand in a Trotro. In that clip, I was the one that played the mate. Yaw Barimah knelt down and said, “If the Kalyppo he drank is what’s causing this mess, then I wonder what would have happened if he drank the other one.
We are asking with Ghanaians to pardon us for all the wrongs we have committed. For example, I founded Drivers for Change in order to support Nana Akufo-Addo. I’m pleading with Ghanaians to pardon me from the ground. I’ve made a terrible mistake.
This is not the first time a group of truckers who supported the New Patriotic Party in its 2016 election campaign have expressed their dissatisfaction.
The drivers, who are members of the “True Drivers Union,” claim that they will have to apologize to Ghanaians in 2021 because the country’s current economic situation makes it pointless for them to support the NPP.
Yaw Barimah, the union’s public relations officer, claims that he and other drivers established “Drivers for Change” to support the NPP in the general election on the theory that the party’s policies would protect them.
