The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) has expressed strong optimism that they will secure victory in the upcoming December 7 general elections.
According to the party, just as voters in the United States have elected the Republican Party in the just-ended US Elections, Ghanaian voters will reflect similar support in their favour in the upcoming December 7 polls.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, November 6, the NPP highlighted its longstanding close relationship with the Republican Party, noting shared values such as the elephant symbol, political orientation, and ideological alignment.
“To this extent, we are excited to learn that increasingly, centre-right philosophies are receiving overwhelming support across the globe. It is our fervent hope that just like the United States, Ghana's "elephant party," will also emerge victorious in the December polls, by the grace of God,” part of the statement read.
The party further noted that this connection is reinforced by both U.S. President Trump and Ghana’s Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, who share a commitment to implementing "bold solutions" for their respective countries.
“We wish the Trump administration the very best in their tenure of office as the incoming Bawumia administration, by God's grace, hopes to build on the already fruitful relationship between the two political parties and nations for mutual benefits,” the part said.
The NPP extended its congratulations to the Republican Party, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, and Vice President-Elect J.D. Vance on their victory in the 2024 U.S. elections.
They described the win as an "emphatic endorsement of the vision and ideals of the Republican Party by the good people of the United States.”
The NPP also extended its congratulations to the United States for achieving yet another significant milestone in its democratic journey, demonstrated by the peaceful conduct of the recent elections.
“America has, once again, shown the way, and we, in Ghana, have some useful lessons to learn from this American example, particularly as we prepare to go to the polls on December 7, 2024,” the statement added.
