Defeat is Staring NDC in the Face - Dr Nuamah The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP)
Parliamentary candidate for Kwadaso Constituency
Dr Samiu Kwadwo Nuamah has stated that defeat is
staring in the face of the ruling National
Democratic Congress (NDC) hence their propaganda
spree ahead of December 7 polls.
He indicated that the NDC is desperate for power
and are determined to use all dubious means to win
power.
Dr Nuamah wondered why after mismanaging the
economy the NDC would go round asking Ghanaians to
vote for them to be retained in power.
The President John Dramani Mahama has received
backlash from a section of the public for begging
Northerners to vote for him because he is one of
their own.
Speaking on Abusua FM’s Abusua Nkommo hosted by
Kwame Adinkrah, he questioned why the President
would talk as if only Northerners voted for him to
win power in 2012.
The parliamentary hopeful lashed out at the
President for spewing tribal comments oblivious of
the different tribes in the country.
He called on the President to desist from being a
divisive President by drawing the line between
Akans and Northerners adding that such move will
throw the country into something untoward.
Dr Nuamah indicated that the President would have
lost miserably if Akans had rejected him, asking
why he and the NDC are targeting 1.5 million votes
in an Akan populated area, Ashanti region.
‘Why would the President with his position spew
such venom? Has he thought about the
implications?. Akans are not tribalistic as
perceived the NDC, if Akans are divisive, would
they have garnered the votes in the Ashanti region
and other Akan populated regions. The target of
1.5 million votes, are you only expecting Ewes and
Northerners to do this for you. He should stop
spewing such unpleasant comments. This is totally
wrong, it is un-presidential.
The NDC have realised that defeat is staring them
in the face and so have embarked on propaganda
just to win power. They are desperate for power.
The President has no stake when it comes to
getting votes from only Akans and Ashantis,’ he
fumed.
According to him, political parties going the
tribal lines would not augur well for nation
building.
He called on his constituents to vote for him to
win the seat pleading with Ghanaians to also vote
for Nana Addo and the NPP. Source - Kasapafm
