Addai-Nimoh sets out three conditions for NPP to “break the 8”
A flagbearer aspirant of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Francis Addai-Nimoh has outlined three conditions for the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) to win the 2024 elections.
Speaking on the Asaase Breakfast Show on Tuesday (24 October) Addai-Nimoh said it is very possible for the NPP to “break the 8”.
“I have articulated that ‘breaking the 8’ can be achieved and there is a possibility for everybody to set a record in every endeavour. So for the first time, the New Patriotic Party is determined to do so. But I have three conditions which must be satisfied before that can be achieved…”
“The first one is the internal unity of the members of the party; if your internal unity and strength are weak, then we cannot marshal the maximum force for the external battle,” he said.
Addai-Nimoh added, “The second factor is based on the performance of the government because it is NPP-led government of Nana Akufo-Addo … and the third one is, who will be the face to lead the party”
“Chances are bright”
Addai-Nimoh said he is confident of obtaining about 30% of the total votes come 4 November.
“My chances are bright … it is an open field and the views of delegates differ… I’m expecting this election to go for a run-off and I’m pushing for a run-off.”
“and why I am pushing for a run-off is that we can use that one as a process of achieving unity in the party. If there is a run-off between Addai-Nimoh and any of the other three, then, there is an obligation on my part to try to get the support of the others…”
