Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the Vice President of Ghana, has called on New Patriotic Party (NPP) supporters to avoid blaming each other for the party’s defeat, cautioning that such actions could weaken party unity.
During a meeting with party executives from the Klottey Korley constituency, Dr. Bawumia identified voter apathy as the main reason for the party’s loss.
He stressed that, after analyzing the election results, it was evident that the NPP unintentionally handed power to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) rather than the opposition party improving on their 2020 performance.
“We couldn’t meet our expectations that is why we conceded. That doesn’t mean it is over. We lost a battle, not the war. I want to encourage you all. In this election, we were the ones that gave the victory to NDC. They didn’t win because their numbers didn’t change from 2020.
“Ours reduced by 40 percent. I want you all to understand that united we stand, but divided we fall. I have seen many people in pain, but I have an abiding belief in God. His ways are not our ways.
“Blame games will destroy us. Let us stand together. Stop the blame games. Let’s look at the future. Let’s concentrate on strengthening the party. It is not about individual ambition. I know we will come out successful.”
