Private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu has stated that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has no realistic chance of winning the 2028 general elections following its decisive defeat in the 2024 polls.<\/p>\n
According to him, the only scenario under which the NPP could return to power in 2028 would be if the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) engages in corruption on a scale worse than that associated with the NPP during its time in office.<\/p>\n
Mr Kpebu argued that it would be nearly impossible for a party that lost an election by a margin of more than 1.7 million votes to reverse its fortunes within a single electoral cycle.<\/p>\n
Speaking in an interview on TV3 on Saturday, December 27, he said the magnitude of the NPP\u2019s loss points to deep-seated public dissatisfaction that cannot be quickly undone.<\/p>\n

His comments come at a time when the NPP is engaged in internal deliberations as it prepares for presidential primaries and attempts to reorganise following its defeat in the 2024 general elections.<\/p>\n
Political analysts have attributed the party\u2019s loss to factors including economic mismanagement, corruption, deteriorating living conditions and perceptions of arrogance while in government.<\/p>\n
In the 2024 elections, the NPP\u2019s presidential candidate, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, lost to President John Dramani Mahama.<\/p>\n
