NDC must eschew complacency and let the hardwork begin. There is serious battle ahead for election 2024\u201d, the American based economist wrote.<\/p>\n<p>It is not clear what prompted Dr. Iddrisu to write this, but comments by the supporters of the NDC across the social media platforms indicates that the NDC consider the performance of the veep in the elections as abysmal, hence the advice from the economist.<\/p>\n<p>Some say because the campaign team of the vice president predicted a percentage far above 70 and 80, and their candidate ended up getting 61.4, it means that all is not well in the NPP, but Dr. Sa-ad thought otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Iddrisu added that \u201c Hon.
