Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Director of Communication of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah, has told the National Democratic Congress (NDC) that the 2024 general election is about programmes and policies and not subtle \u2018threats of violence\u2019 and \u2018vain\u2019 innuendos.<\/b><\/p>\n

He said the elections are about which candidate has the best policies and programmes to manage the economy. To him, the flagbearer of his party, Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia is next to lead the country \u2018with humility, capacity, and the fear of God to unleash Ghana\u2019s production potential to benefit all Ghanaians\u2019.<\/p>\n

He was reacting to the National Chairman of the NDC Johnson Asiedu Nketiah who has told the NPP administration to start compiling their handing over note.<\/p>\n

Addressing a press conference in Accra on Monday January 8, Mr Asiedu Nketiah said \u201cThey will fail because no power can defeat an organized and determined people struggling for their freedom. Truth is, Ghanaians have already abandoned the NPP and their followers. Therefore, the NPP ministers must begin preparing their handing over notes.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlready, thousands of persons affiliated to the NPP have lost the District Level Elections. Yes, NPP people have miserably lost the Assembly and Unit Committee elections to members, supporters, and affiliates of the NDC.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cAshanti and Eastern regions were also very impressive for the NDC compared to 2019 performance. Presently, even though the Electoral Commission unexpectedly postponed voting in some electoral areas in these two stronghold regions of the ruling NPP, NDC members and affiliates secured 34.13% and 45.52% of the electoral areas in Ashanti and Eastern regions respectively.\u201d<\/p>\n

But in a statement he posted on his X platform, Mr Ahiagbah said \u201cNDC should not get it twisted. We have seen you this confident and boastful before. Please note, Chairman Mosquito, where we have gotten to as people or a democracy, it is not simply a question of it is my turn or to propagate hardship. No no no…..Chairman. It is about programs and policies, not subtle threats of violence and vain innuendos. Bawumia is next to lead with humility, capacity and the fear of God to unleash Ghana\u2019s production potential to benefit of all Ghanaians.<\/p>\n

It is possible. There are difficulties to do with the economy, and it is the same globally. But it is coming back, and you know it. But regarding your suggestion to the NPP, respectfully Chairman, I think you should be the one preparing for retirement on 7th Dec 2024; because it will be your LAST DANCE, and it will end in defeat. So chill, Sir!<\/p>\n

\u201cI make you this promise Sir, the elections will be free and fair….Pls stop seeing the ghosts of your past electoral ways & means in your dream. I wish you a humble new year.\u201d<\/p>\n
