The Director of Communications for the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah, has stated that the scheduled ‘Thank you tour,’ which former Vice President Dr Bawumia is set to embark on, is aimed at reorganising the party’s members.
The NPP has announced a nationwide ‘Thank you tour’ following their defeat in the 2024 elections.
Speaking at the party’s headquarters in Accra on Wednesday, April 23, ahead of the tour set to begin on Saturday, Dr Bawumia explained that the party’s loss in the 2024 elections was due to members failing to turn out and vote in their numbers.
According to Mr Ahiagbah, the 2024 defeat can largely be attributed to what Dr Bawumia mentioned, and that the ‘Thank you tour’ is intended to serve as a bridge to correct the mistakes made.
“We are telling you that one of the key things the former Vice President highlighted is that our people didn’t come out to vote. This ‘Thank you tour’ is designed to galvanise the party, address the issues that need to be fixed, and to truly regenerate our party, reignite our passion, and work towards returning the party to power,” he said on JoyNews’s The Pulse.
The NPP set up a 12-member committee, led by the former Speaker of Parliament, Prof Mike Quaye, to investigate the reasons behind the party’s loss in the 2024 elections.
Last week, the committee presented its report to the party but has refrained from making the contents public.
