On September 24, 2024, a group of over 35 university lecturers from the University of Ghana, GIMPA, and UPSA took to the streets of Accra to rally support for the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
The professors, including prominent figures like Prof. Nana Ama Brown and Prof. Kpessa-Whyte, criticised the current New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration, claiming it has severely damaged Ghana’s educational system and contributed to widespread hardship among the populace.
The campaigners were seen distributing NDC paraphernalia and T-shirts to drivers, commuters in traffic, and pedestrians along key routes between Okponglo and Shaishi, as well as in front of the University of Ghana.
Many participants expressed their frustration with the NPP’s governance, with some labeling it the worst regime Ghana has experienced since the start of the Fourth Republic.
Prof. Nana Ama Brown stated, “We have to change this NPP government to save the country from the current hardship.”
Her comments echoed the sentiments of many Ghanaians who feel disillusioned by the present administration’s policies.
Prof. Kpessa-Whyte also addressed the crowd, urging citizens to vote overwhelmingly for the NDC in the upcoming elections to restore hope and stability to the nation. “It’s time to reclaim our future and ensure a better Ghana for all,” he emphasized.
As the election draws nearer, the campaign efforts by these lecturers highlight a growing movement among academics and citizens alike who say they are eager for change in Ghana’s political landscape.
