Former flagbearer aspirant of the (NPP), Francis Addai-Nimoh, has described the party's defeat in the 2024 elections as a "brutal injury" that will require time, deep introspection, and meaningful reforms to overcome.

Once you are injured and it's a brutal one, the recovery takes time and requires a lot of effort to fully heal," Addai-Nimoh said.

He recalled that while the (NDC) suffered a significant loss in 2016, it was not as severe as the defeat the NPP experienced in 2024. "For a party that seeks to return to power, this must be of great concern as we look forward to 2028.
