A former Speaker of Parliament, Edward Doe Adjaho, has warned the National Democratic Congress in the Volta region that, the party risk falling apart if they fail to win the 2024 general elections.
According to the leading figure in the NDC, the notice is to get the party to work hard to win power and not be complacent.
Speaking at the NDC’s Volta Regional Delegates Conference in Ho on Saturday, the former MP for the Avenor-Ave constituency now Akatsi South, called on party members to sacrifice to ensure the party achieves its target in the next elections.
“We are a social democratic party, we put people at the centre of what we do so please I beg you, colleagues I beg you, we have to win the 2024 elections otherwise NDC will be disintegrated, let’s sacrifice for this party for once,” Mr Doe Adjaho said.
Mr Doe Adjaho also has charged members of the party to be united and remain focused as the current economic crisis is not sufficient to guarantee the party a victory in the 2024 general elections.
“The statement is that we should not be complacent as a party. The mid-term elections in the United States have taught us that hardship alone, inflation and the economy cannot win an election…So let us not be complacent.”
“Hardship is a factor, and cost of living is a factor, but it is not sufficient. We have to work hard, we have to be united and present a united front in this region and in the party,” Doe Adjaho said.
The National Democratic Congress has elected majority of its regional executives last week, looking forward to electing their national executives in December 2022 to complete its internal elections.
The NDC has indicated that, they are battle ready to wrestle power from the ruling New Patriotic Party, pointing to economic hardship in the country as one of the reasons why Ghanaians will vote for change.
