Mahama’s lacklustre campaign will lead to NDC defeat and not rigging. – Wontumi

Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Chairman Wontumi, has hit back at the NDC over claims that the governing political party intends to rig the 2024 elections.

To Wontumi, the NDC should rather focus their energies on campaigning and selling its message to the people and stop the lacklustre campaign.

He noted that Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, who is the flagbearer for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has toured almost all the constituencies in the country, but John Dramani Mahama, with 18 days to the elections, has toured only 65.

Being aware of his impending defeat, the NDC, just like they have always done, wants to shift the blame for their impending defeat before they are announced as losers of the 2024 elections.

“The NDC per my observation in Ashanti region are not campaigning vigorously but instead, are sitting in the comfort of their homes and offices developing strategies to blame the NPP for election rigging,” he said.

Per Wontumi’s estimation, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has delivered on its mandate to the people of Ghana and do not need the intervention of the military to win the 2024 elections.

“Take a look at the numerous interventions and social policies we have implemented including Free SHS, Agenda 111, the restoration of the teacher and nursing trainee allowances which the NDC cancelled. These are all evident that the NPP is winning this election and we don’t need any army officer to rig the election in our favor,” he said in a post via social media.

I have taken notice of a wild claim by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to the effect that Brigadier General Michael Opoku, General Officer Commanding Central Command of the Ghana Armed Forces, has been tasked by President Akufo-Addo to execute an election-rigging scheme in the Ashanti Region ahead of the 2024 polls.

As Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) I want to put forward that the statement by the NDC’s National Communications Officer Sammy Gyamfi, were infantile and deserves to be dumped in a latrine.

The NDC per my observation in Ashanti region are not campaigning vigorously but instead, are sitting in the comfort of their homes and offices developing strategies to blame the NPP for election rigging.

The NPP is working tirelessly, campaigning as if we were in opposition, while the NDC’s efforts have been lackluster.

The NPP’s rigorous campaign efforts are evident in Dr. Bawumia’s extensive tour of constituencies, having visited nearly all 276, whereas Mahama has only toured 65.

Dr. Bawumia is left with only two constituencies to finish touring the entire 276 constituencies of the country.

However, as we speak, Mahama has only toured 65 constituencies with only 18 days more to the general election.

I believe the NDC’s allegations of election rigging are a preemptive excuse for their impending loss.

We have really campaigned and we continue to campaign as though we are in opposition.

NPP has really worked hard.

Take a look at the numerous interventions and social policies we have implemented including Free SHS, Agenda 111, the restoration of the teacher and nursing trainee allowances which the NDC cancelled.

These are all evident that the NPP is winning this election and we don’t need any army officer to rig the election in our favor.

We however need the police and army to put to check headless NDC members who are training under the supervision of retired Commissioner of Police, Kofi Boakye to create violence.
