We’ll protect ballot boxes with our lives – Opare Addo

George Opare Addo, National Youth Organiser of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has vowed to resist any attempts by opponents to steal ballot boxes during the 2024 general elections.

He warned that the NDC would confront individuals who attempt to snatch ballot boxes.

Speaking at the NDC’s campaign launch in Tamale on Saturday, July 27, 2024, Opare Addo expressed confidence in the party’s victory, citing their success in protecting ballot boxes during the Assin North by-election.

He added that they will protect the ballot papers at the peril of their lives.

“My last message is to the Electoral Commission, Madam Jane Mensa, come December 7…we’re not asking anybody to cheat for NDC, we’re very confident we’re winning the elections. But woe unto any man born of a woman, who would dare go to any polling station and do the untoward, we will face them squarely.

“We were in the Assin North and we protected the ballot boxes, and we will protect the ballot boxes at the peril of our lives come December 7.”

He stated that the youth are clamouring for the NDC flagbearer John Dramani Mahama to rescue the nation.

“We’re looking for a Ghana that we all want. We’re looking for a Ghana where our dreams and aspirations can be met. I believe in the vision of John Mahama, when he promises he does it, Mahama is the key to the problems we are looking for.”
