He said a repetition of government formed by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) or the National Democratic Congress (NDC) will be a great disappointment.
According to him, it is now time for him to break the NPP-NDC duopoly and secure victory after earlier unsuccessful attempts.
“You need somebody who will come and add value to our natural resources; somebody who will produce to meet our needs. So, the young people, you’ll be disappointed voting for them.”
“If you are thinking you’re going to get a job when you vote Mahama or you vote Bawumia or you vote Alan Kyerematen, you’ll be disappointed. The only person who can support you to get your jobs to do is Kofi Akpaloo,” he said in an interview with TV3 on Tuesday, April 16.
Popularly known for his ‘sɔme ha, na sɔme ha’ slogan, Kofi Akpaloo says he is poised to win the 2024 presidential election.
In 2011, he founded the Independent People’s Party (IPP) but was unable to contest in the 2012 and 2016 elections.
He unsuccessfully contested the rejection of his nominations in court.
Following the dissolution of the IPP, he established the Liberal Party of Ghana in 2017 and participated in the 2020 elections.
Mr. Akpaloo is confident of victory in the December 7 elections.
“The people are receiving our message very well. So, it’s more or less like we are still in the structuring, building process. We are building our structures to make sure we have formidable force,” he said.
24-hour economy slogan
The LPG leader argues that the 24-hour economy policy announced by the NDC is a mere slogan.
He contends that the policy does not say much and is not worthy of attention.
“I don’t know the details about the 24-hour economy. I don’t know what exactly they are coming to do. I would just take it like a mere slogan. So, it’s not going to be all services that will be needed in the night.”
“It’s not something that we should waste our energy on,” he added.
