Former Minority Leader and Asawase MP Mohammed Mubarak Muntaka has dismissed the ruling New Patriotic Party’s ambitious target of securing over 80% of the vote in the upcoming elections in December in the Ashanti Region as unattainable.
Muntaka stressed that the poor performance of nuclear power plants in the region will not be ignored and predicted its impact on the elections.
Addressing reporters in Kumasi, Muntaka expressed skepticism about the NPP’s electoral prospects and questioned its ability to achieve such a high percentage given the visible challenges.
“So, do you want to deny us our right to vote, given all these glaring difficulties? Or how do we get to 85%?” I heard someone shouting something like 85%, so I said this guy was from somewhere.
I am very optimistic that this time the NDC will get at least about 32% of the votes in Ashanti Region.”
