NDC Claims Ghanaians Will Follow U.S. Election Lead  to Vote Mahama

Mahama Calls for Justice and Fairness as Cornerstones of Peace 

Former President John Dramani Mahama, NDC Presidential Candidate for the 2024 general election

The Deputy Director of IT and Elections for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Yayra Koku has drawn parallels between the recent United States presidential election and Ghana’s upcoming December 7 election, urging Ghanaians to prioritize “experience over experiment” by voting for former President John Dramani Mahama.

Yayra Koku, in a statement,  accused the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) of secretly campaigning in support of U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris, purportedly in an attempt to link a Harris victory with their own ambitions to retain power in Ghana.

“In fact, they encouraged their members in the United States to campaign and vote for Harris. This is what they were sharing before the election. It was led by Bawumias Social Media Coordinator Krobea Kwabena Asante.”

According to Yayra Koku, the NPP hoped to frame a Harris win as a case of a sitting vice president triumphing over a former president—drawing a potential comparison to the political landscape in Ghana, where Mahama, a former president, is challenging the incumbent administration.

In a twist that appears to have disrupted these plans, Yayra Koku pointed to projections indicating a win for former U.S. President Donald Trump, who has, in a comeback effort, leveraged a “Sankofa” narrative aimed at restoring his vision of America. 

“A former president has made a great comeback to help make America great again,” Yatra  Koku remarked, likening Donald Trump’s return to former President John Dramani Mahama’s own bid to “reset and fix” Ghana’s governance.

Responding to claims within the NPP that Republican victories in the U.S. often herald similar successes for their party in Ghana, the Deputy Director of IT and Elections of the opposition NDC, questioned this notion, noting that the NPP maintained power in 2020 even though former U.S. President Trump lost his re-election bid. 

This inconsistency, Yayra Koku argued, debunks any supposed correlation, casting doubt on the ruling New Patriotic Party’s narrative that a Trump victory bodes well for their own political fortunes.

His argument seeks to dismantle the NPP’s implied parallels, highlighting Ghana’s unique socio-political landscape where, Yayra Koku asserted, a return to experienced leadership is crucial to address the country’s pressing challenges.

Echoes of ‘Sankofa’ in Ghanaian Politics

Yayra Koku’s statement emphasized the concept of “Sankofa,” drawing on its cultural resonance of revisiting the past to make future progress. 

He suggested that the United Kingdom and the United States have chosen seasoned leaders to address current crises and that Ghanaians should follow suit by voting for former President Mahama to “reset” the country.  

“It is time to reset and build the Ghana we all want together,” he stated, underscoring the NDC’s message of a return to experienced governance under former President John Dramani Mahama.

In his closing remarks, the Deputy Director of IT and Elections of the National Democratic Congress appealed to Ghanaians to mobilize for what he described as a pivotal moment in the nation’s history. 

“On December 7th, Ghanaians will make the same history. It will be massive,” he stated, underscoring the stakes of the election as a chance to course-correct and enact meaningful reforms. 

He urged voters to rally behind the National Democratic Congress flagbearer, former President John Dramani Mahama as the candidate capable of addressing Ghana’s economic and governance challenges.

Yayra Koku’s statement underscored a broader NDC campaign narrative focused on former Mahama’s experience and a promise to prioritize stability and reform.

He underscored the NDC’s conviction that Ghana, like other nations, should leverage experienced leadership to “reset and build” the desired future.
