The lawmaker for the Okere Constituency in the Eastern Region, Daniel Nana Addo Kenneth, has expressed optimism that the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) will secure victory in the 2028 general elections.
He admitted that only God knows why the NPP could not retain power during the 2024 elections; however, a comeback beckons for the elephant family.
Mr. Addo projects the 2028 election as a very tough one but assures that the NPP will put in significant effort to snatch power from the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC).
He made this known at Adukrom during the ‘Arise And Build Conference’ organized by the Okere NPP youth wing, dubbed ‘Energizing The Base For Victory 2028.’
According to the Okere Member of Parliament, as the saying goes, “a downfall of a man is not the end of his life,” the great elephant party draws inspiration from the saying.
Therefore, he charged the party’s youth wing to come together, form a united front, and assist the party leadership in achieving a resounding victory in the 2028 polls.
Mr. Addo further admonished party faithful to put aside the defeat suffered in the 2024 elections and turn their focus to the forthcoming 2028 edition by working hard, as it forms part of the foundation for unseating the NDC.
For his part, the Youth Organizer for the Constituency, Daniel Abboah Osew, who spearheaded the program, said that after every election, they must reorganize the youth to return to the grassroots and work for the party to regain power.
He underscored the importance of youth in politics, stating that it is the youth who win power for every political party across the globe, hence the motivation behind the Arise and Build Conference.
Mr. Osew used the opportunity to commend his MP, Daniel Nana Addo Kenneth, for prioritizing youth development in the constituency, citing his initiative to sponsor 16 youth from the area to Russia to help shape their lives.
Aspiring Eastern Regional Youth Organizer, who also serves as the Youth Organizer for the NPP in New Juaben North Constituency, Samuel Osei Sarkodie, popularly known as ‘SOS’ also recalled that statistics indicated that in the 2024 general elections, most of the NPP youth did not participate in the exercise, leading to the party’s worst-ever defeat in the country’s electoral process.
He described the Arise And Build Conference as timely and necessary, highlighting the youth’s role in reorganizing the NPP to recapture power in 2028.
He emphasized the active role of the youth in championing unity before and after the party’s forthcoming presidential primaries and advised against internal politics of insults ahead of the anticipated exercise.
“In my speech, I admonished my fellow youth to be circumspect in their utterances against each other in the upcoming NPP’s presidential primaries scheduled for January 31, 2026, to elect a new leader for the party, so that after everything, they can unite and work for the party to win the 2028 elections,” he recounted.
