Bryan Acheampong, Minister of Food and Agriculture and Member of Parliament for Abetifi, has indicated that the ruling New Patriotic Party, NPP, is not prepared to cede power to the rival National Democratic Congress, NDC, in the upcoming general election in 2024.
He claims that the NPP is constantly prepared to disrupt the eight-year political cycle and maintain power through prudent policies.
As a result, he advised the NDC to disregard the 2024 elections since they would be defeated.
During the Easter Festival at Mpreaso-Kwahu in the Eastern Region, Bryan Acheampong addressed a sizable crowd of NPP members and said this after a walk dubbed “Walk to Build A Better Ghana” that was graced by the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.
He issued a warning that the opposition NDC should not even attempt to generate any uncertainty on the day of the general election in 2024 because the NPP will not spare them at all and will instead deal with them since they have the manpower.
The NDC will soon disintegrate because they are not the country’s alternative, he continued, and the current tactics adopted by the ruling party will make it difficult for them to win any future general elections in Ghana.
He clarified that despite the nation’s economic woes, things are changing and that Dr. Bawumia, the party’s standard bearer, will help the ruling party win the upcoming election.
He said, “Now with the way things are changing the economy will bounce back on its strength again, I am telling you that we are going to come around that curve and we are going to win the 2024 elections hands down”.
“I am not perturbed, I am not afraid, I promise the people of Kwahu, Eastern Region, and Ghanaians in general that NPP will break the eight because it’s possible”.
I believe that we can do it, we have the records of His Excellency, and I am not too worried about breaking the eight, I know that 2024 is another election and we have the record to stand on and we are going to win that election,” he said.
-He continued that “Every election is difficult not just breaking this eight, I don’t see this breaking the eight and all those things, is another election and we have the records of Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, all the infrastructure projects going on across the country and we are going to ride on that very hard and win, where there are gaps we will explain to the population why those gaps exist”.
Bryan Acheampong indicated that “Me and my colleague’s members of parliament, senior members of this party, we are going to do everything in our power to make sure that the good works of the government are properly propagated, there are setbacks in life, there are setbacks in government and these are a turbulent time for the world and we are getting our first share of it, I think we will come around those things and when we campaign on the records of H.E Nana Akufo-Addo and we will surely break the eight with that record”.
