NPP will sweep five regions, share rest with NDC – Kufuor

Former president John Agyekum Kufuor is convinced of a resounding victory for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Wednesday’s elections, predicting a win in five out of the 10 Regions in the country.

The NPP will win more votes in the Greater Accra, Central, Eastern, Brong Ahafo and Ashanti Regions as well as share the other five regions with the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), he said.

Speaking to teeming NPP supporters at the party’s last rally before the crucial December 7 election held at the International Trade Fair Centre in Accra, Mr Kufuor said Ghanaians will witness prudent economic management of the nation’s resources if the NPP comes to office.

The two-term President from 2000 to 2008 said the people who helped him to improve the fortunes of Ghanaians are still ready to unturn the situation generated by the NDC.

Touching on the change the NPP has promised, Mr Kufuor recounted a story in the Bible to demonstrate the need for Ghanaians to embrace the party’s flagbearer, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

He said Ghana through the NPP will experience development and prosperity in the same manner God through Joshua aided the Israelites to cross River Jordan into the promise land.

The former leader of the largest opposition party in Ghana who confessed that he was not an ardent Bible reader in the mornings shared his experience with the thousands of supporters.

He spoke of his dilemma when he woke up this morning not knowing what message to share with the rank and file of the party at the last rally before the election.
