The NDC, if you want, is the only party in Ghana that when it comes to intellectual capacity, we are outstanding.”
Elaborating on the party’s strengths, he added, “We have those who have seen it, who have lived it, who have shown it, time without number that they understand what it is about policy, what it is about the technicalities of running a government.”
Dr. Otokunor drew an analogy to underscore the significance of the upcoming elections, saying, “This election is a very interesting one. It is just like comparing alcohol and water. You know which one can burn your chest and the one that will not burn your chest.”
Reflecting on past governance experiences, he remarked, “The people of Ghana have experienced President Mahama’s governance. We have experienced how he ran this country in four years and the outcome of President Mahama’s governance.”
Through his comments, Dr. Otokunor underscored the NDC’s commitment to leveraging its intellectual and policy-driven strengths to address the nation’s challenges. He positioned the party as a knowledgeable and capable choice for voters seeking effective and informed leadership in the upcoming elections.
