Before the general elections in 2024, Akwasi Oppong-Fosu, a former minister for local government and rural development, claimed that none of the NPP’s presidential candidates posed a threat to the NDC.
Oppong-Fosu believes that the NPP administration presided over by Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has failed.
According to him, Ghanaians will find it extremely difficult to put the country’s leadership in their own hands due to the level of mismanagement and corruption that has characterized the government.
No one poses a threat to the NDC and John Mahama in 2024, he claimed, regardless of who wins the race to be the NPP’s flag bearer.
No presidential candidate poses a threat to the NDC, Oppong-Fosu stated in an interview with Kofi Cula, Host of Political Affairs on Omega FM in the UK. They would rather be a threat to the nation given their ineffective leadership and the mess they have made.
Nobody is surprised by Vice President Bawumia’s claim that the NPP government has performed in a manner that is unprecedented.
Bawumia maintains a bubble around himself. He believes his own lies, which is a problem for his own party and explains why his rivals are pleading with delegates to abstain from voting for liars.
In a related news, Ampaabeng Assimeng, the chairman of the NPP for the Akim Oda Constituency, is said to have acknowledged that the party made arrangements for money to be distributed to voters on the day of the Assin North by-elections.
Ampaabeng Assimeng is heard saying that the polling station (PS) he was overseeing received GHc600,000, which was supposed to be given to voters, in an audio recording played on Accra-based Onua FM on only July 6, 2023.
However, he claimed that the NPP supporters were not given the money, which caused them to vote against the party’s nominee in the Assin North by-election.
The NPP constituency chairman issued a warning that if the party does not take the necessary action, it may experience the same outcome in the general elections of 2024.
