Minority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin says the New Patriotic Party would secure a parliamentary majority if elections were held today, arguing that the ruling National Democratic Congress has failed to fulfill key promises to Ghanaians.

He pointed to the reduction in cocoa prices as a major departure from commitments made to farmers, and noted that repeated increases in electricity tariffs have further strained consumers.

Addressing selected executives of TESCON on Wednesday, the Effutu Member of Parliament emphasised that the party’s chances of winning the 2028 elections will depend on the collective efforts of its members.

He also encouraged TESCON members to reject tribal politics and resist what he described as propaganda from the NDC.

Afenyo-Markin added that the NPP values loyalty, hard work and sacrifice. He cited the party’s flagbearer, Mahamudu Bawumia, as an example, stressing that tribal background does not determine one’s role or contribution to the party’s success.

“As I indicated a few days ago, if elections are held today, the NPP will be in the majority. But that will require hard work and loyalty,We are in opposition. Do not allow division to break you down in your various schools. We all know what is going on in the economy now. Our friends have deceived the entire nation,” he said
