I salute you all, the NPP communication team members residing in foreign countries.

You are doing a marvellous job shedding light on President Nana Akufo-Addo and Vice President Dr. Alhaji Bawumia’s achievements.

You are also communicating Dr. Bawumia’s policies and programmes to the Ghanaian public, both home and abroad, should he be voted to become the president of Ghana in the December 7, 2024, election.

Additionally, you are highlighting the lies and the populist but shallow policies being touted by the NDC and their presidential candidate, Mr. John Dramani Mahama.

As we are a few months away from D-Day, thus, on December 7, 2024, the day of the election, I shall request that you, the foreign-based NPP communicators, take turns to hit the ground in Ghana doing door-to-door campaigning. That will serve your efforts and intentions much better, garnering you more winning votes than staying abroad and doing what you are currently doing.

In Ghana, you may have the chance to mount campaign platforms, interact with the voters, and be in a better position to explain things to them convincingly to counter the lies the NDC is feeding them.

There is a way to communicate your party’s policies, programmes, and intents to the audience to woo them to your camp. The truth must always be said, but strategically.

You don’t just mount a campaign platform to begin to tell what you will do or attack your political rivals. There is something you need to do first, a prelude, of course. And what is it?

The writer will try to get in touch with some NPP guys to coach them on some strategies that, amid all these economic hardships principally occasioned by external shocks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war, and to some extent the obvious official corruption in Ghana, some people will understand to vote for the for the NPP and Dr. Bawumia.

The writer’s strategy is his secret, and his secret is his effective weapon to persuade Ghanaians to help the NPP “break the 8.”.

So far, the on-air communications by the elected NPP communicators are not enough to gather us the needed winning votes. They must be complemented by my suggestion stated above.
