CPP National Chairperson, Nana Akosua Frimpongmaa, has expressed confidence in the party winning the 2024 Presidential elections by implementing effective strategies to amass votes.
According to her, the strategies will eventually break the power-sharing between the NDC and the NPP which has existed since the fourth republic.
Madam Frimpongmaa further noted that the country’s challenges can be addressed in a holistic approach devoid of political and parochial interest.
“How do you eat a big elephant? A slice at a time. So for us, how do we seize power? You connect to the people [and] you have a message. And fortunately for us today, if you saw the #FixTheCountry campaign, it tells you that the youth themselves are fed up. They know that this duopoly is not going to take them anywhere, and it is not about the individuals.
“We have nice people in the NPP. I love Dan Botwe, and I love the President of the country too. There are nice people like John Mahama; he is a handsome, nice man; I really love him. But truth be told, their policies are not working; that is what we are talking about.
“We are confident that coming 2024 this country will see a revolution”.

Give CPP a chance
Additionally, the CPP chairperson explained that the party has the responsibility of enlisting the support of discerning Ghanaians. This, she explained, can be achieved by giving them compelling reasons to give different political party a chance to govern the country.
“We don’t need a gun. If we needed a gun, then we would have had a problem.
“You need a thumb, and the thumb means that you and I; every single individual, including all the frustrated youth, to give the CPP a chance.
“So today, when people talk about CPP, we’ll be doing such disservice to the people of this nation, especially to the youth of today. Because all the neo-liberal policies that are being practiced are the reason why… the youth do not have jobs and the country is not working”.

CPP rebranding to win December 2024 elections
In May this year, the General Secretary of the CPP, Nana Yaa Gyantua, disclosed that her party will form the next government in 2024. According to her, it will change the country’s destiny, which she claims has been wrecked by successive governments in the Fourth Republic.
Furthermore, she noted that the legacy of Ghana’s first president, Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, remains relevant. As such, the legacy will be effective for CPP in the 2024 general elections.
Nana Yaa Gyantuah, maintained that CPP is undertaking a restructuring exercise to mobilize the grassroots of the party and the youth for an overwhelming victory in 2024.
Elaborating on the scope of preparedness, she explained that the current leadership of CPP is rebranding and repackaging the party. When done, she disclosed that the masses would be encouraged and compelled to vote immensely for the party in 2024.
Engaging the youth especially those at the tertiary level, she indicated, is key in the reorganization exercise as well as reconciling with disgruntled party members for a firm front to win the election.
