An
Operative
of
the
National
Democratic
Congress
(NDC)
James
Agbey
has
told
the
New
Patriotic
Party
(NPP)
that
the
NDC
will
not
allow
them
to
rig
the
2024
general
elections
if
they
have
such
intentions.
His
comments
come
after
the
Ashanti
Regional
Chairman
of
the
NPP
Bernard
Antwi
Boasiako
(Chairman
Wontumi)
said
that
the
NPP
has
one
million
ways
of
winning
the
elections
this
year.
Speaking
at
the
outdooring
of
the
running
mate
of
the
flagbearer
of
the
NPP
Dr
Matthew
Opoku
Prempeh
at
the
Jubilee
Park
in
Kumasi
on
Thursday,
July
9,
Chairman
Wontumi
said
“They
can’t
stop
us.
2008
they
delayed
us.
2024
elections,
NDC
you
cannot
stop
us.
We
are
winning.
Tell
the
NDC
that
we
have
one
million
ways
to
win
2024
elections
and
we
are
ready.”
But
in
a
statement,
James
Agbey
said
“We
are
on
a
rescue
mission
to
rescue
Ghana
from
the
claws
of
Akufo-Addo.
We
are
ready
to
bring
an
end
to
this
opportunistic
appropriation.
“The
truth
is,
there
would
be
dire
consequences
if
Wontumi
and
his
likes
make
any
wrong
move
ahead
of
the
2024
general
elections.”
Below
is
his
full
statement…
For
Immediate
Release
Monday,
15th
July,
2024
Dare
us,
and
you
will
be
first
to
go
down
–
NDC
Operative
warns
Wuntumi
Over
the
last
couple
of
months,
we’ve
been
saddled
with
news
about
stalwarts
of
the
New
Patriotic
Party(NPP)
making
claims
to
the
effect
that
power
won’t
change
hands
in
the
2024
elections.
These
NPP
elements
have
on
several
occasions
in
public
platforms
made
the
point
that
they
will
use
every
dubious
means
to
snatch
victory
from
the
jaws
of
defeat.
Just
last
week
at
an
outdoring
event
for
Bawumia’s
running-mate,
the
Ashanti
Regional
Chairman
of
the
NPP,
Bernard
Antwi
Bosiako,
popularly
known
as
Wontumi
made
the
point
that
the
NPP
have
several
ways
of
winning
the
2024
elections,
and
that
they
will
win
by
hook
or
crook.
Wontumi
while
threatening
the
NDC
said,
“They
can’t
stop
us.
2008
they
delayed
us.
2024
elections,
NDC
you
cannot
stop
us.
We
are
winning.
Tell
the
NDC
that
we
have
one
million
ways
to
win
2024
elections
and
we
are
ready.”
As
an
operative,
who
served
the
party
in
the
Greater
Accra
Region
as
Director
of
Security
operations
in
2020,
and
currently
serving
as
an
operative,
I
have
done
an
analysis
of
Wontumi’s
threat
and
deeper
scrutiny
of
the
threat
reveals
that
the
NPP
intends
to
use
the
Defence
Forces
of
Ghana
to
unleash
violence
on
the
Ghanaian.
In
many
ways,
this
obviously
is
more
likely
strong
evidence
that
the
NPP
continue
to
muddy
the
waters
or
to
put
it
more
plainly
deflect
attention
from
their
failures
and
misdemeanours.
The
NPP
stalwarts
are
talking
tough
because
they
care
very
little
about
the
consequences
of
their
actions.
I
recall
how
the
NPP
in
recent
times
was
accused
of
breeding
and
arming
thugs
as
well
as
fake
security
operatives
to
harass
and
attack
Ghanaians
in
the
Ayawaso
West
Wuogon
by-elections
in
2020.
We
have
seen
how
political
violence
has
thrown
the
sociopolitical
landscape
of
so
many
countries
into
total
chaos.
Even
in
our
recent
past
here
in
Ghana,
we
have
seen
how
violence
almost
swallowed
us
in
Ayawaso
West
Wuogon
by-election,
and
the
ugly
situation
in
2020
general
elections
where
five(5)
innocent
citizens
lost
their
lives
in
Techiman
South.
At
this
juncture,
let
me
sound
a
note
of
caution
to
all
concerned,
and
warn
that
we’re
ready
to
use
legitimate
force
and
every
means
under
the
sun
to
get
Wontumi
and
his
like
minds
out
of
the
way,
and
restore
dignity
and
respect
to
the
good
people
of
Ghana.
If
they
have
one
million
ways
to
win,
we
also
have
two
million
ways
to
bring
them
down.
This
year’s
election
is
totally
different
from
the
2020
one,
where
Akufo-Addo
was
allowed
to
have
his
way.
We
are
on
a
rescue
mission
to
rescue
Ghana
from
the
claws
of
Akufo-Addo.
We
are
ready
to
bring
an
end
to
this
opportunistic
appropriation.
The
truth
is,
there
would
be
dire
consequences
if
Wontumi
and
his
likes
make
any
wrong
move
ahead
of
the
2024
general
elections.
Let
it
also
be
on
record
that
whether
the
NPP
like
it
or
not,
the
NDC
under
president
Mahama
is
surely
taking
over
power
in
2024.
For
emphasis,
majority
of
Ghanaians
are
insisting
on
the
return
of
the
NDC
to
government
in
2024,
and
there’s
nothing
that
is
going
to
stop
the
momentum
that’s
building
in
that
regard.
The
NPP
dare
not
connive
with
rogue
elements
in
the
armed
forces
to
disrupt
the
2024
polls.
As
a
longstanding
Operative
for
the
NDC,
I
can
boldly
speak
of
our
experiences
and
know-how,
and
our
resilience
to
wade
off
any
NPP
undemocratic
tendencies.
The
truth
is,
there
would
be
dire
consequences
if
the
Nitiwul
and
his
likes
make
any
wrong
move
ahead
of
the
2024
general
elections.
In
fact,
Nitiwul
will
be
first
to
go
down
if
he
dare
orchestrate
election
rigging
and
violence
in
the
forthcoming
general
election.
Some
of
us
are
ready
and
willing
to
defend
our
democracy.
We
are
ready
to
face
off
with
the
NPP
in
the
event
that
they
use
the
armed
forces
to
destabilise
2024
elections.
We
know
Wontumi’s
antics.
He
is
clearly
beating
the
war
drum,
and
he
should
be
ready
to
dance
to
the
tune
of
his
own
music.
The
NPP
must
not
dare
us.
