Former Minister of Lands and Natural Resources and Member of Parliament for Damongo, Samuel Abu Jinapor, has expressed deep concern over the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) defeat in the 2024 general elections.
Speaking on Channel One TV’s The Point of View with Bernard Avle on Wednesday, April 16, Jinapor described the outcome as both unexpected and disheartening.
He admitted that the magnitude of the loss took many within the party by surprise.
“2024, we didn’t win, and so that was a very difficult moment, a long night. The real issue about the 2024 election was the unexpected nature of the results,” Jinapor said.
“I must be honest, if anybody had told me before the election that we would come out with that kind of the results, I would have doubted it completely.”
He stressed that the party must come to terms with the verdict delivered by the Ghanaian people.
“As they say, the voice of the people is the voice of God, the people have spoken and spoken very loudly, and we take it in our stride and move on,” he added.
The NPP’s defeat in the 2024 elections saw the party lose both the presidency and its parliamentary majority, signaling a significant shift in Ghana’s political direction.
