NPP Deputy Communications Director, Mame Yaa Aboagye says former President John Dramani Mahama’s comment to reject 2020 election results is mere “mischief and propaganda”.
The former President, delivering a speech at the 28th anniversary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), issued a stern warning to the Electoral Commission (EC) ahead of this year’s general elections.
According to the former President and flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), the party will not accept the 2020 election results should they suspect any underhand dealings by the EC.
“As leader of the NDC, I wish to serve notice that we shall do all our parts to ensure that our country remains peaceful and that the electoral process proceeds smoothly, but let nobody assume that we will accept the results of a flawed elections”, he cautioned.
But to Mame Yaa, Mr. Mahama’s comment is an admission that the NDC will lose the 2020 general elections.
According to her, the former President is only finding an excuse for his party ahead of their defeat in the elections.
“This act of the former President Mahama is mischief and propaganda to prepare the minds of the NDC for the impending elections because he knows he will be defeated again, so that he can find a very nice way to escape the blame from his supporters. In fact, he is not ready for this year’s election. No manifesto, running Mate and no policy directives; the handwriting is clear. Defeat awaits JM ahead of 2020 elections.”
“I thought you once said that the EC is an independent body, so Ghanaians should leave Madam Charlotte Osei alone to do her work in peace. Please, what has changed this time?” she questioned Mr. Mahama.
