The NDC parliamentary aspirant for Okaikoi North, Mr. Andrew Nii Okaikoi has accused the opposition NPP of engaging in political chicanery, chastising them for abandoning their “infamous” all-die-be-die mantra after realizing it was becoming unpopular.
Speaking to well-wishers and opinion leaders from his constituency on Monday, Mr. Okaikoi expressed surprise at the way and manner the NPP is conducting its campaign for this year's elections and wondered if the NPP, a party seeking to return to power, has any feasible campaign message for Ghanaians.
He said it is a disgrace that Ghana's biggest opposition party cannot offer any realistic option to government’s policies. Even the much touted free SHS, according to Mr Okaikoi, is unrealistic and farfetched.
“We were told the NPP has the biggest brains the country can boast of, but where are they...are they telling us that after their fake free SHS promise they have nothing else...this is a disgrace to our democracy,” Mr. Okaikoi lamented.
He pointed out that what should have been a clarion call on the youth for higher productivity and greater mobilization has instead been a call for all-die-be-die. “The NPP is now realizing that Ghanaians don’t want ‘all die be die’, so they have stolen our slogan.”
He posited: “Do they know what ‘people matter, you matter’ mean? What the NPP proved during their reign is that they and their cronies matter...so their slogan should be ‘We and our cronies matter’.”
Mr. Andrew Nii Okaikoi told the opinion leaders that though he has been given the liberty by the party to choose either Okaikoi North or Central, because of the creation of the constituencies by the EC, he will remain the NDC’s candidate for Okaikoi North.
According to him, he has built the right foundation for anybody who will contest in Okaikoi Central to win.
“We will take the Okaikoi seats this time…we know what we have done and lucky for the person who will represent the party at Okaikoi Central, he or she will not have more work to do, especially with the limited time available.”
