The Director of Communications for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in the 2024 general elections, Miracles Aboagye, has reiterated assertions that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) lost the 2024 general election due to low voter turnout among its members.
Speaking on Joy News' Newsfile a week after the general election, Aboagye explained that, based on the party's data from previous elections, it was clear that most of their members failed to vote on December 7. "One of the key reasons this result is as it is, according to the data, is that our people didn't turn out to vote, and that is the fact," he said.
He highlighted the voting statistics in various regions, stating, "The data is there.
If you put emotions aside and analyse it across all the regions: In 2020, the NPP had 145,000 votes in the Ahafo region; in 2024, we had 113,000.
