Majority Leader in Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, has expressed strong confidence in the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) chances of winning the December 7, 2024 elections, particularly in the Central Region.
In a recent statement, Afenyo-Markin affirmed that the NPP is poised to secure a minimum of 14 seats in the Central Region, highlighting the party’s extensive efforts and strategic planning as pivotal factors.
“Mark this down, NPP will get not less than 14 seats in the Central Region,” he emphatically declared during an interview with Yen Nsempa host, Nana Yaa Brefo on July 3.
“I said in December, God-willing, NPP will get not less than 14 seats. Come December 2024, NPP will get not less than 14 seats in the Central Region,” he reiterated.
Afenyo-Markin emphasized the NPP’s dedication to diligent preparation and hard work to achieve their electoral objectives.
“We will work hard and diligently to ensure this. We will explain our policies to the people, and with God’s Grace, the promise of not less than 14 seats will be fulfilled,” he affirmed.
Highlighting their comprehensive strategy, Afenyo-Markin stressed the significance of unity, prayer, and strategic planning.
“It will all be hard work, prayers, guided and calculated steps,” he added.
Reflecting on the 2020 general election results, Afenyo-Markin acknowledged the NPP’s loss of nine parliamentary seats to the National Democratic Congress (NDC), which won 13 out of the region’s 23 seats.
Addressing internal party dynamics, Afenyo-Markin commented on concerns about unity, stating, “There was no unity because some campaigned against their fellow party members, leading to losses.”
In conclusion, Afenyo-Markin urged NPP members and supporters to unite in breaking the eight-year ruling cycle, emphasizing the critical importance of solidarity in achieving electoral success.
