Ghanaians are awakened to NDC’s machinations – NPP youth

The National Youth Wing of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) have come hard on the leadership of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) for adopting unconventional strategies of campaigning ahead of the November 7 polls.

The young elephants are confident that the NDC out of desperation has now resorted to the use of “total deceit and clandestine moves” to market the party and its Presidential Candidate, President Mahama after failing to make any meaningful impact in the lives of Ghanaians.

For instance, the party said it is very much aware of how the NDC allegedly planted its own agents to pose as officials of the Electoral Commission (EC) to recruit unsuspecting students of the University of Ghana for an advert to further its cause.

That aside, on May 7, 2016, at the International Conference Center during the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA), some agents of the NDC were allegedly spotted posting stickers of the President on vehicles in the vicinity, especially, those owned by persons who by reason of their profession are required to be strictly non-partisan.

“By this shameless and irresponsible act, the NDC has set the stage for the general public to lose confidence in some institutions and personalities who are only victims of an irresponsible behaviour”.

“For a party in government to resort to such dubious and fraudulent moves without recourse to the concerns of the persons involved is an apparent indication that, the NDC has lost its sense of attraction among the youth of Ghana and can therefore not be considered as an option come November 2016,” National Youth Organiser of the NPP, Sammy Awuku said in a statement released in Accra on Thursday.

According to the youth wing of the Danquah-Busia-Dombo tradition, it would serve the interest of the NDC if it refrains from its continuous shameful midnight acts ahead of the general elections.

Nevertheless, it has advised the youth who are eager and yearning for change to be constantly vigilant as a means of “escaping NDC crude machinations”.
