Going into the 2024 general elections, the manifesto that has just been launched by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will represent the hope for the future of Ghana, the Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has said. He said that the NPP is better off in implementing pro-poor policies than its main opponent the National Democratic Congress (NDC). Although times are difficult under the NPP administration, he said, the governing party has been able to implement transformative programmes under the Akufo-Addo administration. Speaking in an interview with TV3 after the manifesto launch in Takoradi on Sunday, August 18, the Effutu lawmaker said "This manifesto represents the hope for the future of Ghana,  it is being anchored on the track record of the 8 years of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, looking at what is ahead of us as compared to what our opponents are saying so far. "I am sure you haven't heard anything visionary from them, we know they didn't perform when they had the opportunity to govern, there is nothing new they are bringing on board but we must concede that Ghanaians have faced difficult times and things are difficult but we are better off in implementing transformative policies than what our opponents can. "This is an election between two political parties with experience in government and we say we are better off. I will want to encourage all party footsoldiers to come together, work together and let us deliver the victory for the party for the sake of the Ghanaian." Prior to his comments, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo appealed to all members and leadership of the NPP to go out in their numbers and market the Bawumia-Opoku Prempeh ticket for the 2024 general elections.
