General Secretary for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Fiifi Kwetey has insisted that the NDC could not collate their electoral results in the past because most of their agents were compromised by the NPP.
He says people who they thought were their people turned their backs and hurt them.
However, going into election 2024, Fiifi Kwetey has assured party faithful of fielding officers who will put their party and the country first over monetary inducements.
Fiifi Kwetey was speaking on Radio Tamale when he made this known.
In parts where NPP has been strong there is the tendency of them throwing money at our people. In fact some of the people we even thought were our own members were not our members but they were members of the NPP pretending to be on our side.
So every step of the way we need to ensure that does not happen. You’re making sure that those who are there are truly your members and of they are your members they will place the party and the country ahead of their personal pocket,” he said on Radio Tamale.
He continued “as I told you about the plague that the NPP represents, in the days of Rawlings it was impossible to hear about NDC people capable of being compromised. But unfortunately when NPP took over power in this country after 8 years of Kufour, the moral fibre of the country started dropping. When we thought Kufour was terrible, what we’ve had in the last eight years of the two degenerates that have taken over you are talking about a further drop as far as the moral fibre of the country is concerned. So what we need to do is to put in extra effort to ensure that the people we are placing there are people who have got the capacity to place country and party above their personal consideration”.
Meanwhile, Asiedu Nketia while campaigning to become chairman of the NDC told delegates that former Chairman for the party must be blamed for their failure to collate their electoral results.
He explained that the software produced for the purpose was not fit for purpose and crashed after a few constituencies were imputed.
He said he had to go to court without figures because the party could not provide him with figures.
He urged the delegates to vote out Ofosu Ampofo and make him the chairman of the political party promising that they will be able to collate results under his leadership.
