Joseph Yammin sparks debate with ‘cryptic’ post over NDC appointments

Joseph Yammin, the National Organiser of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has caused a stir on social media with a cryptic post following President John Dramani Mahama’s recent appointments.

On January 21, 2025, Yammin shared a photo on X featuring himself alongside Mustapha Foyo Gbande, the party’s Deputy General Secretary, and other individuals at a gathering.

The image was accompanied by a thought-provoking proverb: “We live in a strange world where the poor walk miles to get food and the rich walk miles to digest it.”

While the tweet appears to reflect on societal inequalities—where the poor struggle for sustenance while the rich merely exercise to burn calories—it is widely believed to be a subtle commentary on the current political landscape.

Many speculate that Yammin’s message may allude to the fact that some individuals who played key roles in the NDC’s success during the December 7 elections have been overlooked in favour of others who may not have contributed as much.

Although the post did not directly reference the recent appointments within the NDC, critics have quickly linked Yammin’s words to the developments.

Some have speculated that his tweet is a veiled response to his exclusion from any new appointments, despite his significant contributions to the party’s electoral achievements.

Others have raised concerns that certain appointed individuals may not have earned their positions, suggesting that some were newcomers to the party.

In contrast, Yammin’s long-standing loyalty and dedication to the NDC have led many to question why he did not receive a more prominent role.

Despite the criticisms, many have expressed hope that Yammin will ultimately be recognised for his hard work and rewarded with a role that reflects his commitment to the party

How come Nana Jantuah and last minute cross carpet Shamima Muslim get a position and a whole Yamin doesn’t get one?

You just tell me.

From 2012 till date , Yamin has overworked for the Ndc.— 3mooNeNam (@3moNeNam) January 21, 2025

this post is irrelevant and unnecessary, you’re the national organizer of the party what is your problem, you were a minister from 2013-16 so what will happen if others also get the fair share of the positions and you guys still work for the party— ODK (@UTDOdenke) January 21, 2025

Appointments comes with disappointments.

Honorable, please, don’t rush in posting certain tweets. You may not necessarily mean what some people are thinking, but know that in Ghana, politicians can’t say things and not be linked with other meanings. Definitely, you’ll be sorted out with what you’re capable of. Ghana 1st— Lawani (@dannyT_gh) January 21, 2025
