The ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) has welcomed the newly elected national executive of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).
In a statement issued on Wednesday, December 21, 2022, the NPP urged the new leadership of the NDC to engage in issue-based politics.
It also said that it recognizes the NDC’s challenge in collating election results and it is ready to offer the new leadership of the party the needed technical support.
“… the NPP warmly welcomes the new leadership of the NDC to the political table. As confirmed by their National Chairman, we appreciate their difficulty in collating election results over the years, and are willing to provide them with technical support in that regard.
“We are also ready to engage them on politics of issues, and NOT propaganda and deceit.
“We invite them to debate us on the records of good governance to enable the Ghanaian people make an informed decision in 2024,” parts of the statement by the NPP read.
