Money Politics: Ejisu By-Election Vote Buying vindicates Asiedu Nketiah’s Looted Cash Assertion.

The display of money with impunity at the Ejisu Constituency By-election by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) vindicates the National Chairperson of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Asiedu Nketiah’s suspicion that the NPP will engage in votes buying in the general elections in December, 2024 with looted state cash.

It could be recalled that the National Chairperson of the NDC, advised party members not to engage in vote-buying competition with the New Patriotic Party during the upcoming election.

He claims that the members of the ruling political party are prepared to stake all on the line in the 2024 elections, armed with cash taken from looters.

Members of the NDC should, instead of opposing them, present their side of the story and persuade Ghanaians to vote them back into office.

He said. “Our opponents are armed with looted cash, trying to buy votes. Let’s not fall into the trap of competing with them in vote buying. We can’t match their resources, so let’s focus on our strength!’

“They will be happy if we move the battle away from principles, from integrity, from honesty and truthfulness to who pays higher.

“So I would like to caution all of us not to abandon the tools we are more comfortable with and pick the tools NPP is more comfortable with.

“So let’s remain a party of honesty, a party of truth, a party of integrity and that is the only way we can defeat NPP,” he said.

He was speaking at the April 24, 2024 outdooring of Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang as running mate to John Dramani Mahama, the NDC’s flagbearer for the 2024 polls.
