Former National Democratic Congress (NDC) Central Regional Chairman Bernard Allotey Jacobs has warned the New Patriotic Party (NPP) ahead of the 2024 national elections and shouldn’t think all is well in the party.
According to him, some members in the ruling NPP are convincing others to leave the party to leave the party. He asserts that the party must immediately address internal problems and start the reconciliation process.
During a panel discussion on Peace FM’s Kokrokoo, he voiced his worries about the party’s apparent unresolved anger issues and urged leaders to take action to prevent disappointments in the upcoming elections.
“People are convincing others to leave the party; people are persuading individuals to contest against others because they supported specific candidates during the primaries, and that is where the danger lies. The NPP leadership shouldn’t be overconfident that all is well. While they have their programs and their own calendar, the issue of reconciliation is so important.
“In Ghanaian politics, as we enter an election year, the perceptions that people form can never be easily changed. So, the NPP has a lot of work to do because I can foresee that there are people who have decided not to vote, while others hold anger issues.
“They need to initiate the reconciliation process early; otherwise, they will face issues because a significant number of people hold anger issues,” he stated.
