Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the former Deputy Information Minister, has accused the New Patriotic Party (NPP) of planning to rig the upcoming 2024 elections.

During an interview on Citi News on July 18, 2024, he criticized the NPP’s election strategy, suggesting it is a covert attempt at electoral manipulation.

"We know that when they talk about strategy, they are referring to rigging. No amount of rigging will guarantee them (NPP) victory.

“In 2008, they tried a similar rigging tactic, and the margin of defeat was so significant that no amount of mathematical manipulation could help them,” as quoted on citinewsroom.com.

The 2024 elections are expected to be a fierce battle between John Mahama and NPP flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as the main contenders.

However, the Alan Kyerematen Movement for Change, along with Nana Kwame Bediako representing The New Force, will also compete for the presidency.

The NDC is aiming for a comeback.

The party, which lost power to the NPP in the previous election, is relying on Mahama's leadership to lead its resurgence.
