Catherine Abelema Afeku, a member of the campaign team for New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer hopeful, Alan Kyeremanten, has stated that the government of the day has no record that can be defended.
According to her, even the president, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has conceded that there are challenges confronting his government, hence she does not see the need to defend their records.
She indicated that there is nothing wrong with the decision of the Alan campaign team’s refusal to defend the NPP government because there is little to talk about in terms of their achievements.
In an interview with Akan radio station, Asempa FM, Catherine Afeku reiterated that the government has no substantial record that can be defended.
“Even our leader, our defacto leader, His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo, has admitted that we have challenges. So, if John Boadu comes to say that when we [Alan campaign team] say we have challenges, so we have not spoken well, what is there to defend? Is the cedis not at 12 cedis? Was it not at four?” she said.
The New Patriotic Party (NPP) will hold a Special Delegates Congress on Saturday, August 26, 2023, to elect the final five out of the 10 candidates aspiring to the lead the party as its flagbearer for the 2024 general elections.
The final 5 will contest in a November 2023 contest, where the winner and presidential candidate will be decided.
