2024 elections: A chance to pull Ghana from the precipice of destruction – Prof. Naana Jane

In her inaugural address as the running mate for the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, has emphasized a vision for Ghana's future, asserting that the 2024 elections transcends mere political transitions.

She framed the election as an opportunity to rescue the nation from the brink of collapse and usher in an era of unity, progress, and integrity.

“It is not about returning a former president back to power, or about producing the first woman vice president, historical and exciting though they are.

“It is not only about bringing the National Democratic Congress to power although that is indispensable in our current circumstances,” she said at the UPSA Auditorium in Accra on April 24, 2024.

Expressing concern over the challenges facing the country, Opoku-Agyemang articulated a vision of healing and restoration.

"It is about winning the elections for a purpose that goes beyond those enumerated above. The purpose is the opportunity to hold our country together, again; to heal Ghana; it is about the chance to pull Ghana from the precipice of destruction, of normalizing corruption, of incomprehensible greed, from deep despair," she declared, rallying support for a transformative agenda.

In a call for inclusivity and national unity, Opoku-Agyemang stressed the importance of respecting diversity and ensuring that all Ghanaians are valued and empowered, regardless of their political affiliations or linguistic backgrounds.

"It is a chance to work hard towards a country where citizens do not feel disrespected, are not intimidated, ignored because of the way they vote or the language they speak.

“The victory we seek as a party is to invite everyone to the onerous task of rebuilding a broken Ghana, of restoring hope, in a manner that the NDC is capable of doing by their history and achievements," she affirmed.
