The defeated New Patriotic Party in the December elections have ignited the streets of Abeka Lapaz, a suburb of Accra, with a mammoth rally. The rally was to thank the numerous followers of the party for their unflinching support in the December elections. Joy News Correspondent David Young reported that the streets leading to the venue of the rally were choked with human and vehicular traffic. He said the euphoria at the venue was amazing not typical of a party defeated in a keenly contested elections. Party paraphernalia, according to him, was on high demand as supporters gleefully branded their cars, arms and bodies with the blue and white colours of the NPP. General Secretary Nana Ohene Ntow told Joy News in an earlier interview that the rally would be addressed by Presidential Candidate Nana Akufo-Addo and other party bigwigs. He said similar thank-you-rallies have already been held in several regions of the country, and a final one has been pencilled for the Eastern Region. Story by Nathan Gadugah
