Opinion : Supposing there is a by-election in Sefwi Juaboso today, will the NDC withdraw?

The National Democratic Congress NDC has withdrawn from the Ejisu by-election, scheduled for Tuesday, April 30, 2024.

The reasons given by its General-Secretary Hon. Fiavi Fifi Kwetey, as stated: “…. We have already set into motion processes leading to December 7,

The former Bibiani Anhwiaso Bekwai Constituency New Patriotic Party NPP Organiser Alhaji Ben Ali Seaman says in truth, the excuse given by the NDC for withdrawing from the Ejisu by-elections does not hold water.

Assuming there is a by-election today in Sefwi Juaboso, will the NDC withdraw? Or let us add North Tongu constituency or Asunafo South or Tamale South or the same Ashanti Region Asawase Constituency.

“Let us face facts here. The NDC knows for a fact that it is not strong on the ground today, as it was 2016 and 2020. And with the noise it is making now, any by-election will expose its unpopularity, especially in the Ashanti region, where it keeps telling Ghanaians that it will win. If it is indeed sure of that, this by-election should be like mock-elections for it to test the grounds in Ashanti and do the corrections before contesting, Elections 2024,” he explained.

He added that top soccer nations preparing for the World Cup will take up trial matches to test their preparedness. So, the NDC should have entered this by-election to access whether the processes it is laying in place are working.

He called on Ghanaian not to take the NDC seriously.

The NDC knows it is losing ground and so cannot risk damaging the situation by contesting in an election that it knows it will lose.

He therefore appealed to the public to come out in their numbers come December 7 and cast their votes for the NPP to continue the developmental project yet to be completed.
