John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has cautioned Ghanaians not to support the New Patriotic Party (NPP) again in the next December elections.
Mahama emphasized the current economic problems and stressed that voting for the NPP would essentially approve President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for a third term.
Speaking to NDC supporters at the Winneba unveiling of the party’s 2024 platform, Mahama emphasized how important the December elections are.
He said that the NPP is trying to avoid taking responsibility for what they saw to be state capture, corruption, and impunity during their almost eight years in office.
He said, “We cannot continue on this path, lessons must be learnt from the experience of this last almost 8 years. A vote for the NPP will be an expression of satisfaction with the impunity of the last eight years. A vote for NPP is a vote for a third term of Nana Akufo-Addo.”
“A vote for the NPP in this election is a vote to escape accountability. It’s a vote to allow officials who have stolen and raped this country’s resource to escape accountability and go laughing all the way to their bank account.”
“Their flagbearer and his running mate who have been prominent actors of this horror movie Ghanaians have watched this almost last eight years, these people cannot demand accountability from the government of which they have been an integral part.”
