Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Former Bekwai MP Joseph Osei-Owusu has revealed that the internal post-election report from the New Patriotic Party showed a concerning pattern — over two million voters in the party’s strong areas opted not to engage in the recent general election.
He stated that their silence conveyed a message the party must no longer overlook.
“The report shows that a little over two million people around our stronghold did not go out to vote. They also told us a story,” he said on Citi FM’s Eyewitness News.
Osei-Owusu recognized that this disengagement showcased voter discontent and acted as a painful yet essential reflection.
“They made us look at what we did wrong… Things we said, things we overlooked, things we ought to have known, things we ought not to have done, but we did,” he admitted.
He urged the party to expand its attention beyond just winning elections and to engage in a meaningful way with its disenchanted supporters.
“It is appropriate that we go round to thank them. The thank you tour is not only for those who have won,” he said, suggesting the party’s immediate focus should be reconciliation and accountability rather than celebration.
