The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Fifi Kwetey has stated emphatically that the party has decided to become more vigilant as the December 7, 2024 elections approach.
The main opposition party is still in power because of what they see as a concerted effort on the part of the governing New Patriotic Party to plunge the nation into economic crisis.
Mr. Fifi Kwetey, the General Secretary of the NDC, made these claims in an interview with Joynews’ PM Express.
Mr. Fifi Fiavi Kwetey claims that the NDC as a party will be watchful before, during, and after the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections. He also claims that, in spite of the public discontent with the Nana Addo-led government’s handling of the nation’s unprecedented economic turmoil, the party will do whatever it takes to manipulate the results in order to stay in power.
“It is for the above reason and many others that the NDC, a party known for its probity and accountability, will also stop at nothing in making sure that the election is free, fair amd transparent. This reason, the NDC cannot be complacent and assume that the current economic meltdown and public dissatisfaction would automatically lead to electoral victory in the December polls.”
Fifi Fiavi Kwetey said, “It is normal in politics sometimes to see a level of frustration, anger, disappointment, the economic meltdown and the suffering that is going on and assume that somehow that is going to be enough for you to win an election.”
He further noted, “But I can tell you that for many of us who wrestled to take NPP out of power the last time when they were in power, we know that you never are complacent, especially when you’re dealing with a desperate political party. This particular political party we are dealing with here is literally an entity that cares about nothing but power.”
