Leila Djansi regrets campaigning for President Mahama, calls for prosecution of Selassie Ibrahim

Outspoken Ghanaian film maker, Leila Afua Djansi says she’s regretted campaigning for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and President John Mahama in the 2012 elections. In a Facebook post on Tuesday morning, Leila revealed some of the challenges she faced when she publicly worked in an organized and active way towards the goal of NDC to canvass votes for the party.

“Good morning from John Mahama’s Ghana!! Multiple days without water. Last week we had to call the company head to have taps opened.

I so regret campaigning for NDC although I have no vote in Ghana. I lost friends, someone threatened to burn down my office in Ghana cos I was NDC.

After all the sacrifices made to campaign and have faith in this party, Ghana has been faced with so much incompetence from this team! Even not living in Ghana, you feel the hardship. But they have money to give to a less qualified individual to brand buses.

Buses we brand at no less than 5000ghc per bus were branded for 30,000. That money could have been used to improve the water-flow system in the country. Beds for hospitals… This is the Ghana you get when selfish people thrive.

When they give only to their family members. Clothe themselves in material things so they can [be] worshiped.

So shameful! And everyone has forgotten that the young woman in question hasn’t returned the money and hasn’t even been prosecuted.”
