Reality will soon dawn on those who crossed carpet – Kennedy Osei reflects on NPP’s defeat

In the wake of the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) disappointing results in the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections, Kennedy Osei Nyarko, the Member of Parliament for Akim Swedru, has called on party members to remain focused and united.

In a candid post shared on Facebook, Nyarko acknowledged the challenges the party now faces but emphasized the importance of regrouping and moving forward with determination.

“The reality will soon dawn on those who crossed the carpet, those who voted skirt & blouse, and those who refused to vote.

It’s just a matter of time,” Nyarko stated, reflecting on the divisions within the party during the election campaign.

His comments come after a tense and bitterly contested election season, where internal party disagreements, voter apathy, and external criticisms seemed to have contributed to the NPP’s poor showing at the polls.

Despite the heavy defeat, Nyarko urged his fellow party members not to succumb to despair.

“Let’s be focused and not be weighed down by the abysmal performance of the party in the December 7th elections,” he added, stressing that now is the time for the NPP to come together and prepare for the future.
