The General Secretary of the Progressive People's Party [PPP], Murtala Mohammed, has described former President John Dramani Mahama’s 95.24% of votes in the party’s just ended flagbearereship contest as a sit-up call for the party in power.
He said the former President’s 95.24 percent of votes shows that the 2020 elections will be keenly contested between the NDC and NPP, only if Mahama will get the other six flagbearer contestants genuinely on board to support him.
“In factual terms I am against former President Mahama’s comeback to contest for President, because I see no reason . . . when there are other international or state assignments he can support the government of the day with due to his political career built over the years,” he said while speaking on UTV’s ‘Adekye Nsroma’ political discussion segment.
According to him he was amazed about the votes polled by the former President.
“I was expecting a 75% win for former president Mahama, therefore his current percentage margin of winning is above my imagination. Former President Mahama has sent a big statement to the NPP ahead of the 2020 elections,” he said.
He said the NPP want to create an impression as if they careless about former President Mahama’s comeback, but he believes that it is a very big sit-up call to them.
“I am telling you that if you can make 95% votes in an internal organized election, it means that all things being equal you can win the general elections, if you put up a leadership behavior,” he said.

what craaaaaap is this? Wasn't the same 95% he won before the 2016 elections? What has really changed except that he won 95% in opposition. wo ma yen asowa nko edzidzi. Think of your 0.2% party.
Mutala Muhammed, i beg you and your Paa Kwesi Nduom finish do the analysis for settlement to the customers you owe? or ............
May be yes! however they are his followers in a NDC subset of party not the universal set (whole) of Ghanaian independent and discerning minded citizens. Proper analogy should be drawn
it is always sadi that ndc are illiterates ,even graduates among them are not educated. if 350,000 people vote for a thieeef and you think you are better off it is your problem. just keep deceiving yourself
Hahahaha. What kind of analysis is this? Which school teaches that? Hasn't Kwesi Nduom been having 100% votes in the PPP always? How many elections has he won in Ghana? Interestingly, the vote for Mahamah is a statement to NPP not to PPP? Ooh Massa....please come again.
the only thing any reasonable person will deduce from mahama's victory is that either ndc does not have any choice or the other contestants were sabotaged. i also think ndc is the most lazy group of people who doesnt know how to market a new person. now it will come to pass that they will stay in opposition forever. Thank you Lord
Before the 2016 elections, Mahama being the incumbent President and with no one to contest him, got 99% of the votes to become the flagbearer. But the end result of the December was a disaster, never seen or heard of in the history of Ghana, losing over 50 of their MPs. So winning 95% is no news. All what Ghanaians are waiting for is the 2020 elections.
I FEEL SO SAD WHEN I HEARD SO CALLED EDUCATED PEOPLE MAKING SUCH A BIZARRE ANALYSIS. IF 2000 PLUS NDC MEMBERS VOTE FOR MAHAMA AND GAVE HIM 95% OF TOTAL VOTES, WHY SHOULD OFOSU AMPOFO, OFOSU KWAAKYE AND COHORTS SAYING ALL MANNER OF THINGS THAT THE RESULT IS A THREAT TO NPP? I WANT TO ASK IF THOSE 2000 PLUS NDC PEOPLE ARE THE MOUTH PIECE OF OVER 25 MILLIONS GHANAIANS. THE SAME MAHAMA GOT OVER 99% NDC ENDORSEMENT IN 2016 BUT HE LOST MISERABLY. MAHAMA AND HIS NDC SHOULD CONTINUE TICKLE THEMSELVES AND LAUGH TILL THEY CRY AGAIN IN 2020.
