'We will emerge stronger' - NAPO's letter to Ghanaians after NPP's loss

Following the 2024 Presidential and Parliamentary elections, which resulted in a victory for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), NPP vice presidential candidate Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, also known as NAPO, has issued a letter reflecting on the outcome.

In his letter to Ghanaians dated December 11, 2024, NAPO expressed respect for the verdict of the Ghanaian people and acknowledged the need for the NPP to work with the public to address their concerns.

"The 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections resulted in a victory for the National Democratic Congress (NDC). This was not the outcome we, in the NPP, envisaged, but we respect the verdict of the Ghanaian people. To Ghanaians, we have heard you clearly, and with humility, we accept. We will work with you to get it right," the letter read.

He expressed his gratitude to God for the opportunity to serve his party and country and to Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the NPP leadership, and supporters for their confidence and support.

"I have had extensive discussions with our flag bearer, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, to reflect on the outcome of the elections and, in good time, we shall reflect further as a political party on the causes of our 2024 election loss," it added.

NAPO stated that he remains confident that the NPP will emerge stronger and regain the trust and support of Ghanaians.

"As we go into a period of honest introspection and reflection on this electoral verdict, I am confident that we will emerge stronger and bounce back to win the trust, confidence, support, and affection of Ghanaians," his letter continued.

He concluded by asking for God's blessings on Ghana and the NPP, expressing hope for resilience and strength in the future.
