The Eastern Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mark Oliver Kevor has stated that the party will utilise all means necessary to dethrone the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in 2024.
He was responding to fiery remarks made over the weekend in Kwahu by Bryan Acheampong, MP of Abetifi Constituency.
Mark Oliver Kevor addressed party supporters during a visit to the Eastern Region by NDC flagbearer candidate John Dramani Mahama.
“The NPP is self-aware the time has come for John Mahama to be President, so it has resorted to intimidation. The NPP is threatening not to hand over power to the NDC in 2024. As regional chairman, I believe I have the support of other executives at the various levels, and so I say, we will also devise any means to snatch power from the governing NPP to John Mahama. We are ready as a party to match the NPP boot for boot.”
According to John Dramani Mahama, the NDC is unconcerned about Bryan Acheampong’s claims that the NPP will never cede power to the NDC.
In his presentation to the audience on Tuesday, Mr. Mahama stated that, regardless of the NPP’s attitude, the NDC will not downplay the role of God in the 2024 elections.
According to him, God had already decided the outcome of the 2024 elections, and nobody can change it regardless of what they do.
“Don’t pay attention to some of the things being said by some people, because it is God’s plan. I go to Church and I have faith that when I kneel and pray, God speaks to me sometimes. God told me that it is our time, and He has already given us the power”.
“When God speaks, no one can change it so let’s continue to pray and believe as Ghanaians that whatever God has put in place will come to pass.”
The former president is on a three-day campaign tour in the Eastern Region. He met delegates and branch executives from Okere and Akuapem North and South constituencies during his tour in Akropong.
The former President also urged party supporters to maintain a decent campaign and rather rally behind whoever is victorious in the 2024 elections.
