NPP Stalwart Defects to NDC Live on Air

In a surprising turn of events, a prominent supporter of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and a well-known figure in Walewale, Mr. Ahmed, popularly known as “11 languages,” announced his defection to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) during a live radio broadcast.

Mr. Ahmed, previously an ardent supporter of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and Hajia Lariba, MP for Walewale, declared his unwavering support for H.E. John Dramani Mahama and the NDC’s parliamentary candidate, Hon. Abuba. He emphasized that this move signifies a wind of change blowing through Bawumia’s own political stronghold.

During his announcement, Mr. Ahmed passionately argued that politics should transcend tribal affiliations. He pointed out that even in the hometown of H.E. John Dramani Mahama, there are NPP supporters who do not vote for him simply because he is a Gonja man. He urged the people of Walewale to make their political choices based on merit and not tribal loyalty, highlighting that Dr. Bawumia should not be voted for solely because he is a Mamprusi man.

Mr. Ahmed, known for his linguistic prowess and influential role in past NPP victories, is expected to bring significant momentum to the NDC’s campaign in the region as the December elections approach. His defection marks a notable shift in the political landscape, reflecting a growing sentiment of change among voters in Walewale.
