NDC General Secretary Fifi Fiavi Kwetey says the opposition NPP is scrambling to rewrite its legacy by claiming credit for the recent appreciation of the cedi.

He said they want glory now while distancing themselves from the severe economic mess they created during their time in power.

During his appearance on JoyNews’ PM Express on Tuesday, May 13, the Ketu South MP accused the NPP of cherry-picking economic narratives to cover up its failings.

“They want to take credit for the recent cedi stability but forget that they were the very architects of the collapse,” he said.

“You can’t run away from the disaster and come back when it looks like a fix is on the way.”

According to Mr. Kwetey, the NPP’s behaviour is hypocritical and disingenuous.

“It’s almost as if they caused the house to burn down and now want applause for showing up with a cup of water,” he said.

“They ran away from every negative indicator—the inflation, the debt, the hardships—but now that the currency is inching back up, they want to suddenly own it.”

He accused the NPP of abandoning responsibility the moment Ghana’s economy spiralled under their watch, only to re-emerge with self-congratulatory rhetoric now that the NDC government is implementing hard but necessary reforms.

“If they had that much faith in their own economic team, why did they spend their last year in power pointing fingers and hiding behind excuses?” he asked.

Mr. Kwetey warned that Ghanaians must not fall for what he described as the NPP’s desperate attempt to stay politically relevant by distorting the facts.

“This is an opposition that created the crisis. Now they want to claim the recovery they did nothing to bring about,” he said.

He then turned his attention to the judiciary, suggesting the NPP is now in panic because they can no longer rely on the protection they allegedly enjoyed from the Chief Justice.

“The NPP’s worry is that they feel her departure makes it difficult for them now to feel safe when cases are brought against them,” he said.

“Because now they are afraid that the person who could possibly be manipulating the system to help them is no more.”

Mr. Kwetey was reacting to growing concerns around the Chief Justice, against whom a prima facie case has been established. For him, this is not about political vengeance but about principle.

“If the person in charge of the country’s justice system can’t be held to the same laws the rest of us must obey, then what kind of justice do we have?” he asked.

He added: “As far as I’m concerned, if she has done everything okay, there’s no problem. But if there’s a problem and it’s established, then that’s it. She has to go.”

When host Evans Mensah posed a counter question, suggesting that the NDC might also have a vested interest in removing her to ensure favourable court rulings, Mr. Kwetey dismissed the idea.

“We are looking for justice,” he stressed. “Justice simply means that if you truly abuse the system, you should go. Whether it benefits us or not is not the point. The point is that wrong is wrong.”

He said he trusts the Council of State and the individuals involved in reviewing the matter. “These are noble people, including a former Chief Justice and a former Speaker of Parliament,” he said. “They will not go on a witch hunt.”

He also defended President John Mahama’s leadership and sense of fairness. “I know John Mahama. He’s not petty. He doesn’t target innocent people. But once a case is established, we must act.”
