Partisan politics in Ghana

Ghana’s electoral process, like its democracy, does not operate in isolation. As an interconnected nation within the global system, shifts in international politics profoundly influence Ghana’s political landscape. 

These shifts shape voter expectations, influence political strategies, and frame debates about governance and policy. 

Understanding these dynamics is essential to appreciating how Ghana’s democracy navigates its path amidst global currents.

Accordingly, Richard Dela Sky, an astute lawyer, has observed that recent international political developments inject intriguing dimensions into Ghana’s 2024 presidential race. 

He remarked that the reelection of former U.S. President Donald Trump to power after the upcoming U.S. elections has inspired hopeful comparisons among supporters of Ghana’s National Democratic Congress (NDC). 

These supporters draw parallels between Trump’s anticipated comeback and former President John Mahama’s attempt to reclaim the presidency in Ghana.

“Like Trump, Mahama’s campaign message centers on a narrative of restoration and correcting what he perceives as the current administration’s missteps. 

“Now, Namibia’s historic election of Vice President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah as its first female president has created another interesting parallel – one that NPP supporters are quickly parroting as potentially favorable to Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s presidential ambitions”.

Dela Sky further emphasized that this comparison reflects how global political trends influence local political narratives. 

According to him, the idea of leaders making comebacks resonates with the electorate, sparking debates about continuity, experience, and redemption in leadership. 

He reiterated that Mahama’s supporters see Trump’s political resurgence as a validation of the possibility of a second chance for seasoned leaders, particularly in times of economic and social uncertainty.

This global-local linkage underscores how international events can subtly shape voter perceptions and campaign strategies within Ghana’s evolving political landscape.

Moreover, Richard Dela Sky noted that the recent success of a sitting Vice President in Namibia’s presidential race is likely to invigorate supporters of Ghana’s New Patriotic Party (NPP). 

He indicated that this development is perceived by many as a symbolic victory, offering an encouraging precedent for the NPP’s own candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, who is also a sitting Vice President vying for the presidency in Ghana’s 2024 elections.

“These international developments have added an intriguing layer to Ghana’s electoral narrative, though it’s worth remembering that each nation’s political dynamics remain unique”.

Sky emphasized that such international successes can have a psychological impact on local politics, bolstering morale and shaping narratives around the viability of vice presidents ascending to the highest office. 

He stressed that for NPP supporters, the Namibian example serves as a validation of their belief in continuity and the capability of vice presidents to seamlessly transition into the presidency. “As Ghana approaches its own decision point, both campaigns are entitled to draw inspiration from these recent democratic transitions”.

However, Dela Sky underscored that the pathway to securing a decisive electoral victory in Ghana hinges on addressing the issues that directly impact the lives of Ghanaian voters, rather than overly fixating on international political shifts. 

While global events can offer interesting parallels or serve as motivational talking points, he argued that they are ultimately secondary to the pressing concerns of the electorate.

He pointed out that Ghanaians are primarily interested in tangible solutions to domestic challenges such as economic instability, unemployment, access to quality healthcare, education, and the fight against corruption. 

Political parties and candidates, Dela Sky suggested, must focus on presenting clear, realistic policies that address these needs and resonate with the aspirations of citizens during this election period. 

Most importantly, securing the support of the electorate demands sincere attention to their priorities.

Thus, politicians need to demonstrate a genuine commitment to tackling everyday challenges and enhancing the quality of life for citizens, rather than depending solely on parallels drawn from global political trends.
