Former Bekwai MP Joseph Osei-Owusu has disclosed that the New Patriotic Party's internal post-election report revealed a troubling trend - more than two million voters in the party's strongholds chose not to participate in the last general election.
According to him, their silence was a message the party can no longer ignore. "The report shows that a little over two million people around our stronghold did not go out to vote.
They also told us a story," he said on Citi FM's Eyewitness News.
Osei-Owusu acknowledged that this disengagement was a reflection of voter disappointment and served as a painful but necessary mirror. "They made us look at what we did wrong… Things we said, things we overlooked, things we ought to have known, things we ought not to have done, but we did," he admitted.
