NPP Lost 2024 Elections Because Of Selfishness,Yentie-Obiaa habit-Ade Coker:
Joseph Ade Coker, former Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has credited the party’s landslide victory in the 2024 general elections to the tireless efforts of President John Dramani Mahama and the perceived arrogance and Selfishness of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
In the just-ended election, President-elect Mahama secured over six million votes, defeating the NPP’s Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, who garnered over four million votes.
The NDC also achieved a commanding majority in parliament, winning over 180 seats, while the NPP managed just over 80.
Speaking on Point of View during Eyewitness News on Citi FM on Monday, December 23, Ade Coker praised Mahama’s dedication, stating, “First and foremost, President Mahama for the past two, three years really traversed this country. He went round the 276 constituencies, 16 regions more than three or four times trying to let the people know his programme for the future.”
He emphasised that Mahama’s relentless efforts to connect with the people and share his vision played a significant role in the NDC’s success.
“Coupled with that is the way the government handled the people of Ghana. There were so many instances where Ghanaians were looked down upon. Most of the appointees of the NPP became very arrogant apart from that the economic situation where you had this haircut, our economy now becoming a junk economy,” he added.
Coker highlighted the dissatisfaction among Ghanaians with the NPP’s governance, which he believes contributed to the NDC’s victory.
“What you saw was the anger of the people. Ghanaians were really angry. So you could see that people voted massively for the NDC because they wanted a change and they bought into what President Mahama was telling them,” he added.
