The Election Review Committee of the National Democratic Congress investigating the historic defeat of the party has ended its work in the Western Region with party officials tight-lipped on the possible causes of the defeat they suffered in the region.
A total of eight parliamentary seats which were held by the NDC were lost to the New Patriotic Party, which also garnered a lot more votes in the presidential election than the NDC. The NPP, which prior to the elections had only eight parliamentary seats, managed to grabbed eight more from the NDC to bring to 16, its number of seats in the region while the NDC now has 10 parliamentary seats.
Western Regional Communication Director of the NDC, Famous Tumi Acqua described the work of the team as successful but fell short of details as to what the constituents said during interactions with the various groups. He told Connect FM in Takoradi on Monday that the outcome and recommendation of the nationwide investigation, if adopted and implemented at the end, would ensure a victory for the NDC in the 2020 general elections. “Let’s allow the committee to finish their work across the country.
They will come out with the reasons, and by all means any solution to that reasons will come out… I don’t want to jump,” he said. While in the region, the team went to Wiaso, Asankragua, Agona Nkwanta , Sekondi / Takoradi, Shama and Wassa East constituencies where they interacted with party executives and members, constituents and other party stakeholders.

As a matter of fact, this fact finding Committee is just chopping NDC reserve money. The NDC party should NOT waste their time at all about why they lost the 1016 Election massively. The following will cost the NDC Party for some years coming: (1)When a party member chop state funds he was transferred to the Flagstaff House (2)Memembers chop money instead of punishing them they will be transferred to Flagstaff House. (3)Executing project with inflated prices (4)The Power drunk Babies with Sharp Teeth. (5)Disrespect for human being if you are not NDC member. (6)How Judgement Debts were paid to Party members (7)Increases in every thing from Water, Electricity, Taxes (No Relieves) etc. without caring the Ordinary People in Villages as NDC say they are for the poor people. The so called Capitalist Party (NPP) has brought Relieves e.g. Free SHS, Taxes some removed, some slashed down drastically. If these and the rest make impact in the ORDINARY GHANAIAN life, HOW will the same Ghanaians vote for NDC again to take them back to the HARDSHIP TIMES. By the way any future Election will NOT BE TRANSMITTED LIKE 2016. NDC Success in Election is HEAVILY DEPEND UPON TRANSMISSION.
JUST CONTINUE DECEIVING YOURSELVES FOR 2020. MARK IT DOWN, THE NPP WILL TAKE MORE SEATS FROM YOUR CORR UPT PARTY IN THE 2020 ELECTIONS IF THEY ARE ABLE TO COMMENCE THE FREE SHS PROGRAM AND THE ONE DISTRICT ONE FACTORY PROGRAM. YOU GUYS DO NOT THINK OF GHANA BUT YOUR OWN POCKETS AND JUST WINNING ELECTIONS. TAFLATSE PARTY
But who cares?
