Accra, Ghana – The New Patriotic Party (NPP), Ghana’s ruling political party, has extended its congratulations to the United States Republican Party and its leaders, President-Elect Donald Trump and Vice President-Elect J.D. Vance, on their recent victory in the 2024 U.S. general elections. In a statement released on November 6, 2024, the NPP praised the Republican Party’s win as a testament to its values and ideals, which resonated with the American electorate.
The NPP expressed its pride in standing alongside its “sister party,” the Republicans, in celebrating this significant achievement. The Ghanaian party emphasized the close ideological and historical ties it shares with the Republicans, pointing out their mutual alignment within the global center-right alliance, the International Democrat Union (IDU). The statement highlighted the symbolic importance of the elephant, which represents both parties, as a “winning symbol” and an emblem of strength in their shared political philosophy.
In its message, the NPP congratulated the American people for another peaceful election, crediting the U.S. for setting a democratic example that the world, including Ghana, can draw inspiration from. The NPP noted that these recent events underscore the growing support for center-right ideologies worldwide and expressed hope that this trend could reflect in Ghana’s upcoming general elections on December 7, 2024.
“We are excited to learn that increasingly, center-right philosophies are receiving overwhelming support across the globe,” the NPP statement read. The party conveyed optimism that Ghana’s “elephant party” could mirror the Republican Party’s success, adding that both President-Elect Trump and Ghana’s Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia share a commitment to “bold solutions” for their respective nations.
The NPP further expressed confidence in the future collaboration between the two parties, envisioning strengthened bilateral relations for mutual benefits. The statement closed with a rallying call, “Indeed, the ELEPHANT is the WINNING SYMBOL. It is POSSIBLE.”
Signed by Justin Kodua Frimpong, the General Secretary of the NPP, the message underscored the party’s vision to build on its relationship with the Republican Party and learn from their victory. The NPP looks forward to a productive alliance that fosters progress and shared values between Ghana and the United States.
