NDC's Landslide Victory: Mahama's Hard Work and NPP's Arrogance Cited as Key Factors

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has secured a landslide victory in the 2024 general elections in Ghana, with President-elect John Dramani Mahama winning over six million votes. According to Joseph Ade Coker, former Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the NDC, Mahama's tireless efforts and the perceived arrogance of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) contributed to the NDC's success.

Mahama's dedication to connecting with the people and sharing his vision played a significant role in the NDC's victory. He traversed the country, visiting all 276 constituencies and 16 regions multiple times to share his program for the future. This effort helped to galvanize support for the NDC and ultimately led to their landslide victory.

The NDC also achieved a commanding majority in parliament, winning over 180 seats, while the NPP managed just over 80. Coker attributed the NPP's poor performance to the party's perceived arrogance and the government's handling of the economy, which he described as a "junk economy." The dissatisfaction among Ghanaians with the NPP's governance ultimately led to the NDC's victory, with many voters seeking change and buying into Mahama's vision for the future.
