A former Speaker of Parliament, Prof Mike Oquaye of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) is to lead an 11-member election review committee, set up by the NPP to investigate the party’s heavy loss in the just-ended 2024 general elections.
Justin Frimpong Kodua, the party’s General Secretary, said the committee’s terms of reference include reviewing the internal elections and campaign strategy, identifying the challenges that led to the electoral defeat, and proposing solutions.
The committee has been given three months to complete its work and report back to the National Council of the party.
The former President John Dramani Mahama made a historic return to office after a fiercely contested race on December 7, 2024.
The Electoral Commission (EC) led by Jean Mensa, announced on 9 December that Mr Mahama secured 6,328,397 votes, representing 56.55% of the valid votes cast.
He defeated Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia of the NPP, who garnered 4,657,304 votes, making up 41.61%.
