Media personality and former Ghana Airport Authority Board Chairman, Paul Adom-Otchere, has offered a detailed explanation for the 's (NPP) defeat in the September 2, 2025, Akwatia by-elections.
According to him, the party's loss was a consequence of ill-timed decisions and misaligned campaign strategies.
Speaking on Good Morning Ghana on September 5, Adom-Otchere argued that the by-election was scheduled just months after the 2024 general election, which was a period in which the party was still reeling from its significant loss. "The timing of the election was not good for the NPP because the NPP came from a very huge defeat in the 2024 Election.
The defeat was expected; the margins were unexpected," he said.
