President Mahama with chiefs of the Kpone Traditional Area
PRESIDENT JOHN Dramani Mahama has described the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as a vociferous political party which will be surprised by the number of votes the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will obtain in the December 7 polls.
According to him, the NDC is a party which talks less, adding that it has “silent majority” supporters, as opposed to the NPP supporters who want to be heard everywhere they find themselves.
The leading opposition party, the president noted, would be silenced by the massive votes the NDC would garner during the general election.
“NDC, we are the silent majority because we don’t speak much. If you look at the NPP, they talk a lot. When you meet one or two of them, they can talk more than the crowd here. But the NDC, the silent majority, always surprises them during elections. They wonder where the party gets its vote but our supporters are there.
President Mahama, who said this at Kpone as part of his campaign tour of the Greater Accra Region, argued that the New Patriotic Party does not stand a chance in this year’s elections despite the party’s vociferous supporters.
Touching on his government’s infrastructural projects, President Mahama underscored, “We’ve made the most massive investment in the road sector in the history of Ghana. Not only that, if you look at education, we’ve done the same thing. If you look at the education sector, it is the same thing. In Greater Accra, we are building ten new community senior high schools to enable our children to attend school.”
