- Akosua Amoabeng is calling for a non-partisan review of Johnson Asiedu Nketiah’s record.
- She argues that partisan loyalty often masks a lack of real progress in leadership.
- The critique focuses on the need for tangible results over political rhetoric.
New Patriotic Party (NPP) communications team member, Akosua Amoabeng has called for a shift toward objective assessment, challenging the leadership record of NDC National Chairman, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah. Speaking during a media engagement on Tuesday, April 14, 2026, Amoabeng urged Ghanaians to “take party politics out of it” and look critically at the tangible outcomes of past administrative decisions.
Amoabeng’s remarks were sparked by recent debates over national security recruitment and economic management. She argued that the habit of viewing every national issue through a partisan lens has hindered the “Accountability Reset” needed to move the country forward. By questioning Asiedu Nketiah’s record, she aims to highlight what she describes as a gap between political rhetoric and the actual progress made during his long tenure in party leadership and public service.
According to Amoabeng, the focus should remain on the efficiency of state institutions rather than the charisma or longevity of individual politicians. She noted that while Asiedu Nketiah is a formidable figure in Ghanaian politics, his record must be subjected to the same rigorous scrutiny as any other official. She emphasized that the youth, in particular, are looking for results such as job creation and economic stability rather than “messy” political maneuvers or blame games.

The critique has gained significant traction online, with social media users divided over her bold stance. Supporters of Amoabeng believe that her call for a non-partisan evaluation is a necessary step toward improving governance. Conversely, loyalists of the NDC Chairman argue that his experience and strategic leadership have been instrumental in maintaining the party’s relevance and fighting for the interests of the common citizen.
Amoabeng concluded by calling on both the government and the opposition to prioritize national development over individual or party survival. She maintained that unless Ghanaians learn to demand accountability regardless of their political affiliations, the cycle of unfulfilled promises will continue. Her intervention serves as a reminder that the 2026 political discourse is increasingly being defined by a demand for competence over loyalty.
As the political atmosphere heats up ahead of future cycles, such “real person” critiques are becoming more common. Amoabeng’s insistence that we “take party politics out of it” sets a challenging tone for established leaders who have long relied on party structures to shield their records from individual scrutiny.
