Complacent and power-drunk NPP will be shocked by 2020 election
Complacent and power-drunk NPP will be shocked by 2020 election results–Vim Lady.
Broadcast Journalist, Afia Pokuaa, popularly known as the Vim Lady has
said that 2020 election results will shock the governing New Patriotic
Party (NPP) that is being complacent and power-drunk.
According to her, the governing party is so much obsessed with power and
does not attach any sense of urgency to their internal elections; a
move that will spell doom for the party.
“Power has gotten into people's heads and they think that it’s just a
walkover for the NPP. So they think that let’s do Primaries in April and
do this and do that and we can win. The same thing happened to the NDC
around 2000 and 2004. Ashaiman and some very strongholds of the NDC was
lost to the NPP because some Parliamentary candidates were selected
against the wish of the people on the grounds”. She observed.
She blames the General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party, John Boadu
because he and the other executives have relaxed and do not get the
sense that it is urgent.
Vim Lady noted that in 2020 there will be high voter apathy and the
various regions that voted massively for the NPP in 2016 will not come
through so it is high time the political party reminds itself of the
fact that elections are in December.
“Are the one million votes still there? There’s going to be some form of
voter apathy and that is what the afrobarometer report predicts. A lot
of people are undecided, a lot of people are disgruntled. So Kumasi will
not come for you, Eastern region will not come for you, Bono will not
come for you.” She stressed.
