Alliance of Drivers Ghana Raises Concerns Over Lack of Support
The Alliance of Drivers Ghana, formerly known as Drivers for Change, has expressed deep concern over the lack of support from government appointees, despite their efforts to help the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
In a press statement, the group revealed that their national executive members have been using personal funds to motivate media for press releases and conferences.
According to the statement, the group was handed over to the Minister of Transport, Hon. Kwaku Asiamah, by President Nana Addo Danquah Akuffo Addo, but Asiamah has refused to assist them.
Their calls to regional and national offices have gone unanswered, and they’ve been ignored in favor of the Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU), whose members are not necessarily party supporters.
The Alliance of Drivers Ghana, who worked against Mahama in the 2016 general election, is urging Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia to intervene.
They’re committed to “breaking the eight,” but require hard work and resources, which are currently lacking.
In contrast, the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) supports its drivers’ group to pressure the government.
“We call on Dr. Bawumia to come to our aid,” they added
