NPP is for all social classes, not just the middle class – Mike Oquaye

When asked whether his comments meant the NPP should now stop seeing itself primarily as a middle-class party and instead position itself as a party for all Ghanaians, Professor Oquaye said the party’s strength lay in its ability to address the needs of people at different economic levels.

Professor Oquaye also pointed to the introduction of free Senior High School education under the NPP as another example of the party’s social intervention agenda.

He said the NPP should not be viewed as a party for only the middle class, saying that the party’s policies and social interventions have historically targeted people across different social groups.
