NDC Vice President Candidate, Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang
Political analyst and governance expert Frederick Agyarko Oduro has said that one of the reasons the National Democratic Congress (NDC) was defeated in the 2020 general election was as a result of the party’s decision to elect a lady as its candidate for vice presidency.
According to Oduro, who described the party’s decision as an “experiment,” his claim is based on the analysis of the election results and not on the research he has conducted.
“I think the experiment of taking a female vice president candidate was something that did not work for former President John Dramani Mahama,” he told GBC radio in an interview monitored by MyNewsGH.com.
According to him, the fact that President Akufo-Addo won almost all of the 22 constituencies with 613,804 votes in the Central Region with just NDC getting 538,829 is an indication that Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyeman did not do well in your own region.
He challenged the vice president of the NDC saying that at least Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyeman could have helped win the Komenda area where she came from.
The political expert again applauded former President Mahama saying he did well in the Greater Accra region, therefore if his running mate had done a bit of work to poll the votes from the central region, the NDC could have done a great deal. change in election results.
Meanwhile, the NDC in the parliamentary elections was able to increase its seats from 3 to 12 seats now.
