The Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) has declared its unflinching support for the New Patriotic Party in the upcoming election run-off.
The decision was taken yesterday by the National Executive Committee in consultation with members and supporters at the grass root level.
Addressing a press conference in Accra on Monday, Bede Ziedeng General Secretary says the NPP has created a stable political and economic atmosphere needed for development and called on all Ghanaians to vote Nana Akufo-Addo the NPP’s flagbearer into power.
The DFP, a breakaway faction of the opposition National Democratic Congress contested the just ended December 7 presidential and parliamentary election.
It failed to secure any parliamentary seat, but garnered 27,889 or 0.33 per cent in presidential election under its candidate, Emmanuel Ansah Antwi.
Prior to the election, the party lost some key members to the NPP and NDC, accusing the patron and founder of the party, Obed Asamoah of running a “one-man-show,” a charge a vehemently denied.
