The Minister for Works and Housing has said that the party’s defeat in the just ended general elections is a strong message from Ghanaians indicating that the citizens weren’t happy with the performance of the government.
Speaking to Joy News on Monday, December 9, Mr. Nkrumah made these assertions.
“The people of Ghana have sent us a strong message,” Kojo Oppong Nkrumah has said.
He claimed that NPP supporters’ noticeable indifference had a significant effect on the party’s performance under former President Nana Akufo-Addo and current Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia.
“We won’t vote [for NPP] because we’re angry,” Oppong Nkrumah echoed some voter sentiments. “We won’t vote because we’re disappointed. We won’t vote until you give us money.”
Voters criticized “how some senior government officials carried themselves,” he said.
According to the former minister of information, it’s critical to “embrace these reasons,” refocus, and improve.
The perils of complacency were heavily emphasized by Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, who cautioned: “The political class needs to listen a lot more to the people.”
Despite all signs, including Dr. Bawumia’s concession of defeat, he warned the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), which has won the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections, to take note of the NPP’s electoral fate, feel the full weight of the mandate they are about to inherit, and take their duty to the Ghanaian people seriously.
