Former President of Ghana, , has spoken about the impact of voter apathy on the fortunes of the (NPP) in the 2008 general elections.
According to him, several cracks in the (NPP) in 2008 led to the party losing. , who was speaking to some morning show hosts at his residence, said he was hurt that the NPP could not win but blamed it on the cracks within the political party at the time. "Some chairmen connived to remove some Members of Parliament, and these persons contested as independents, and that affected us greatly.
We lost, I think, eighteen seats, and that did not help us as a political party. "If we want to win the election and continue the great policies to ensure continuity, we must vote massively for a first-round win.
It was worrying that we lost in 2008.
