NPP can Break the 8 with the Help of Elected Candidates

President Akufo-Addo has stated in his latest statement to the NPP that the party can Break the 8 with the help of elected parliamentary candidates for the December 7th general election.
According to the President,  the election of new parliamentary candidates can aid the National People’s Party in breaking the 8th.
President Nana Akufo-Addo is confident that the New Patriotic Party will win the 2024 elections after the party completes its primaries on Saturday.
The National Progressive Party has a full set of parliamentary candidates after the polls in order to elect parliamentary candidates in areas where they have their sitting MPs to complete the set elected in orphan constituencies a few months ago.
Before the January 27th NPP primaries to elect parliamentary candidates, 16 current MPs announced they were not going back to parliament. An additional 20 sitting NPP MPs lost their bid to be retained as candidates for the December 7th elections.
Although the party lost a significant number of veterans, there is a pool of youthful additions that will be the future of the party going into the  2024 election.
On Sunday, January 28, President Akufo-Addo conveyed his felicitations to the party through a message highlighting the “excellent amalgamation of both experienced and youthful parliamentary candidates.
” With a parliament that is evenly divided between the NPP and NDC, and a desire to break the eight-year cycle of power for political parties, President Akufo-Addo expressed optimism about the prospects of their candidates securing a majority in the 9th Parliament of the 4th Republic, thereby assisting in the election of a presidential candidate for the NPP on January 7th, 2025.
The New Patriotic Party believes that it has served the people of Ghana well and will have the chance to break the 8 and thus continue in government as the first political party under the 4th republic to have governed for 12 years continuously.

I would like to extend my warm congratulations to the rank and file of the party and applaud all stakeholders—the national, regional, constituency, electoral area, and polling station executives of the party, the Electoral Commission, the security services, and the media.
