NPP Will Not Hand Over Power to NDC, Bryan Acheampong Reaffirms

In a recent statement, Bryan Acheampong, the Member of Parliament for Abetifi Constituency, has reiterated his belief that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will not win the 2024 general elections, reaffirming his stance from last year. He emphasized that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) would therefore not transfer power to the NDC.

Speaking at a unity walk organized by the NPP as part of the Kwahu Easter celebrations in Mpraeso, Kwahu South Municipality, Eastern Region, Mr. Acheampong stated, “Last year I stood here in Mpraeso and said that whether NDC likes it or not they will never win the December 7 polls and therefore the NPP will not hand over power to them because they cannot win the elections. If you cannot win elections why do you want power to be given to you at all cost.”

Mr. Acheampong, who also serves as the Minister of Agriculture, highlighted the economic challenges faced by Ghana, including difficulties for contractors to execute projects like agenda 111 due to factors such as COVID-19 and the Russian-Ukraine war. However, he expressed confidence in the NPP’s ability to revive the economy, citing positive indicators such as a drop in the dollar rate and improvements in inflation rates.
