Former President John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has made a passionate appeal to the Ghanaian electorate to vote overwhelmingly against the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming December 7 general election.
Mahama’s call to action comes as he condemns what he describes as the wanton dissipation of state resources and the NPP-led government’s mismanagement of the economy.
Addressing separate rallies at Nadowli and Wichaw as part of his 3-day campaign tour of the Upper West region, Mahama emphasized that the NPP’s corruption and economic mismanagement have plunged the country into a serious economic crisis.
He warned that retaining the NPP in power would be tantamount to endorsing impunity and perpetuating economic hardship for Ghanaians.
Mahama stressed that the December 7 election presents a critical opportunity for Ghanaians to hold the NPP accountable for their actions.
He urged citizens to send a strong message to the NPP and the international community by voting them out of office.
This, he believes, would allow the NPP to reflect on the damage they have inflicted on the country.
“The best message that Ghanaians can send not only to the NPP but to the rest of the world is that they have done enough damage, and it is time for them to go into opposition,” Mahama declared.
He emphasized that the NDC is committed to restoring economic stability, transparency, and accountability, and that a vote for the NDC would be a vote for a better future.
Mahama’s campaign tour of the Upper West region continues, with scheduled visits to areas such as Funsi, Nabulo, Tumu, and Gwollu on October 13.
As he engages with voters, Mahama is expected to reiterate his commitment to addressing the economic challenges facing Ghana and promoting good governance.
The NDC flagbearer’s message resonates with many Ghanaians who are concerned about the country’s economic direction.
With the election looming, Mahama’s call to action is likely to galvanize support for the NDC and increase pressure on the NPP to address the economic crisis.
As the campaign season intensifies, Ghanaians will be watching closely to see how the NPP responds to Mahama’s criticisms and whether the party can convince voters of their ability to manage the economy effectively.
The outcome of the December 7 election will depend largely on which party succeeds in winning the trust of the electorate.
Mahama’s campaign tour is seen as a critical moment in the election campaign, as he seeks to mobilize support and energize NDC loyalists. With his message of change and accountability, Mahama is poised to make a strong impression on voters and potentially shift the dynamics of the election.
