The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Frimpong Kodua, has accused the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) of deceiving voters in Akwatia and attempting to replicate the same strategy in Kpandai.
Speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen show, Mr. Kodua said although there is nothing wrong with the NDC seeking political advantage, the party must not mislead Ghanaians in its quest for power.
He alleged that the NDC brought contractors to Akwatia during the campaign period to create the impression of ongoing development, only for the contractors to abandon the site after the party won the elections.
“Now all contractors are off the site after they lied to the people to win their votes, and they are trying to use the same strategy at Kpandai,” he said.
Mr. Kodua argued that while political competition is normal, it should not come at the expense of Ghana’s democratic values.
“Any good citizen should be fearful of the NDC. Forget that I am a politician — what went on in some constituencies during the elections shows attempts to skew results simply because their party won the presidential election,” he added.
He further attributed disturbances in some constituency elections to alleged efforts by the NDC to extend their presidential victory to parliamentary seats.
The NPP General Secretary urged Ghanaians to remain vigilant and prioritise the national interest above partisan politics.
