The National Democratic Congress (NDC) have been dealt a big blow ahead of the 2020 polls as one hundred and fifty of its members have defected to the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Ofoase, a town in the Ashanti Region.
According to the TheGhanaReport, the members declared their intention to side with the NPP when the NPP Parliamentary candidate paid a visit as part of a campaign tour.
Seidu Osman, spokesperson of the group noted that they have gained confidence in the Akufo-Addo administration and therefore it’ll be in the best interest of other NDC members to join the NPP.
“We were made to believe in 2008, 2012 and 2016 that the campaign promises by His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo were just empty talks and a desperate desire by Nana Addo to at all cost become president but for the four years that Ghanaians gave the NPP and Nana Addo the mandate, we have seen and benefited from his good works,” he asserted.
