The Ghana Movement Union (GUM) says it will begin its path to the 2024 elections next year.
The party’s standard-bearer, the Reverend Christian Kwabena Andrews, alias “Osofo Kyiri Bosom,” attributed his defeat in the recently concluded elections to limited campaign time.
He said that COVID-19 affected his campaign activities and as such the party had only eight months to campaign for the elections unlike other political parties that have been in existence for many years and are well known to the public.
In a radio interview with Accra-based Citi Fm, Andrews said he is optimistic that the party will do exploits in the 2024 elections. He said this was based on the party’s result in the recently concluded elections.
“The little we were able to do brought this great record. So if it happened that we started earlier so that people would listen to us, we would definitely have gone further than we did. But definitely, I know we’re going to start very early. For next year, we will start with four years of campaigning to get somewhere. With three years we can cover the entire country, “he promised.
“When you look at the deadline for the work done and the way we campaigned because of the COVID-19 situation, the president did not allow us to campaign. We only use about eight months to campaign, unlike the other parties that have existed for more than 30 or 40 years. So we were going to capture certain areas but time was not on our side, ”he said.
Meanwhile, statistics from the 2020 presidential elections declared the Ghana Movement Union (GUM) as the third political party with the most votes.
Andrew obtained 105,548 votes representing 0.805% of a total of 13,119,460 votes cast in the elections.
He also congratulated the Electoral Commission for ensuring a smooth and smooth election.
Earlier yesterday, the Director of Communications of the nuclear power plant, Mr. Eugene Arhin, had posted on his Facebook page that Mr. Andrews had called President Akufo-Addo to acknowledge defeat before the final statement of the president of the EC.
