A fact-finding report led by former Majority Leader Kyei Mensah-Bonsu has revealed the key factors that contributed to the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) heavy defeat in the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections.
The report attributes the party's poor performance-particularly in the Ashanti Region-to the leadership style of former President Nana Akufo-Addo, which was perceived as rigid, single-minded, and dominated by family members.
Additionally, the mode of selecting the party's presidential, parliamentary, national, and regional executives was cited as a major issue.
The team gathered insights from respondents across all 47 constituencies in the Ashanti Region, including 'trotro' and taxi drivers, market women, traders, business owners, artisans, youth groups, teachers, doctors, and other professionals.
