Leader and convener of #FixtheCountry pressure group, Oliver Barker-Vormawor in a Facebook post has predicted that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will win the 2024 general election no matter the candidate.

According to him, there are nine concrete reasons for his prediction and cautioned netizens who have a penchant for making fun of vice president Bawumia, claiming he has the willingness to do anything to retain power.

Below is a full text of his post

Neho! Let me make a prediction. Mark my words.

1. I believe strongly that the NPP will win the 2024 election, no matter the candidate.

2. The Ghana Card will be key to Breaking the 8.

3. The Electoral Commisson will compile a new voters register based only on the Ghana card.

4. Persons in strong holds will get their Ghana cards in time. Those outside of them won’t.

5. The NDC will challenge it at the Supreme Court and lose.

6. The military and police will kill people during the elections to crush any opposition.

7. Ghana media will report that x number of people died in clashes with the Police.

8. The Christian council and civil society will criticize only the people for throwing stones, and call on the police to be “circumspect”. They will be quiet about the deaths as always.

9. The Ghana card is worth more than a 1000 interchanges.

Just be on social media and be laughing at the Vice President. Even if I don’t fear this regime; I respect their willingness to do anything to retain power.

Shalom!

If Akufo-Addo does not sign the anti-LGBT Bill, it will be politically suicide – Sam George

If Akufo-Addo does not sign the anti-LGBT Bill, it will be politically suicide - Sam George

Samuel Nartey George, Member of Parliament (MP) for Ningo Prampram, says it would be politically suicidal for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo not to sign the Anti-LGBTQ+ Bill after Parliament passes it.

According to the MP, if the President does not assent to the bill, also known as the Promotion of Proper Sexual Human Rights and Ghanaian Family Values Bill, two-thirds of members of Parliament must vote in favour of the bill in order for it to become law.

Samuel George, speaking on Eyewitness News, stated that failure to approve the bill would be an indictment on the government.

“The President will be requested by Parliament to sign the bill into law. It will be politically suicidal, and it will mark the sound of a dead mill on his abysmal government if he said he was not going to sign that bill into law. That will be the beginning of the collapse of his government and his legacy. And so I don’t want to have that thought because I think that his advisers and handlers will advise him accordingly,” the Ningo Prampram MP said.

During a joint press conference with US Vice President Kamala Harris at the Jubilee House on Monday, President Akufo-Addo revealed that his government intervened to modify the current anti-LGBTQ Bill.

Kamala Harris also attempted to dismiss Ghana’s efforts to pass an anti-LGBTQ bill.

The Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin, was outraged by the comments and called Akufo-Addo and Kamala Harris undemocratic.

“As the Vice President of the USA, Kamala Harris did yesterday, these things should not be tolerated, that is undemocratic. What is democracy? That someone should have to dictate to me what is good and what is bad? Unheard of, because we have decided to devalue ourselves and go begging? Come on, we have more than enough. God has created more than enough for every person, the Bill will be passed,” Bagbin added.

Mahama and three other NDC flagbearer candidates to be vetted next week

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) says it is preparing for the vetting of its flagbearer candidates, which is scheduled for March 28-29 in Accra.

During a press conference on Thursday, the party’s election committee led by Kakra Essamuah revealed this.

“I think this has been a wonderful experience. They came to file their nominations, and you can see that it was an exciting ceremony. The next step is the vetting; the presidential will take place on Tuesday, and the parliamentary vetting will be the next two weeks, probably the first week of April. We are working towards that,” he said.

A vetting committee will question the four candidates’ qualifications, ideologies, and party vision.

Once the committee completes its vetting, the aspirants may or may not appear on the ballot box on the day of the primaries, May 13, 2023.

The elections committee also stated that plans are still being made to hold elections in the 27 constituencies that were put on hold due to the opening of nominations for parliamentary primaries.

The NDC has closed the nomination period for all flagbearer candidates seeking to lead the party.

Former President John Dramani Mahama, former Finance Minister Dr Kwabena Duffuor, former Kumasi Mayor Kojo Bonsu, and businessman Ernest Kwaku Kobeah are the four aspirants who have successfully filed their nominations.

Speaking to the media after the exercise, Prof. Joshua Alabi stressed that “Our party is firmly united behind John Dramani Mahama. 2024 will not be easy, but everyone and the country keep saying that the NDC is returning, but you know, if you don’t protect what belongs to you, the thief will come for it, so we are not going to sleep even though the general belief is that the NDC is returning.”

“We will work hard to ensure a one-touch victory,” Mr Alabi assured.

Former Governor of the Bank of Ghana, Kwabena Duffuor, Ernest Krobeah Asante, and Kojo Bonsu are also running.
