Electing Mahama Could Have Negative Consequences for Ghana – NPP General Secretary

The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Lawyer Justin Kodua Frimpong, has highlighted the potential negative consequences of voting for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama, in the upcoming December elections.

Frimpong expressed concerns that electing Mahama could impede the nation’s developmental progress.

During an interview with Citi News, Kodua Frimpong emphasized the NPP’s proven track record, stressing the significance of retaining the party’s leadership for ongoing growth.

He highlighted the advantage of assessing a leader’s performance over an extended period, contrasting it with the limited tenure of a potential Mahama presidency.

Kodua Frimpong further stressed the significance of public discourse and debate between the respective party flagbearers. He emphasized that such discussions would allow Ghanaians to understand their policies and ideas, enabling voters to make informed decisions based on substantial differences between the candidates.

“You have one person who has the chance to be president for eight years, who can come to you again for four years for you to evaluate what he has done, and one person who has nothing to lose. After four years, whether he performs or does not perform, he is going. So it is a choice that Ghanaians will have to make.

“That’s the message that we are driving home. When it comes to in terms of policies and ideas, we are waiting for the time that there will be that public discussion or debate between our flagbearer and the flagbearer of the opposition party and then we will be able to know the real and clear difference between the two of them.”
