The
running
mate
to
the
flagbearer
of
the
National
Democratic
Congress
(NDC)
Dr
Matthew
Opoku
Prempeh
(NAPO)
is
widely
recognised
for
his
generosity,
the
Director
of
Communications
of
the
NPP,
Richard
Ahiagbah
has
said.
Mr
Ahaigabh
has
asked
the
general
public
to
disregard
the
attempts
to
attach
negative
labels
to
NAPO.
Instead,
he
said,
Ghanaians
recognize
the
potential
for
a
generous
leader
in
NAPO
to
partner
with
Dr
Bawumia
to
drive
Ghana’s
agenda.
In
a
post
on
his
X
platform,
Mr
Ahiagbah
said
“NAPO
is
widely
recognized
for
his
generosity.
If
you
look
up
synonyms
for
generosity
in
the
dictionary,
you
will
find
words
such
as
goodness,
big-heartedness,
nobleness,
self-sacrifice,
nobility,
and
philanthropism,
among
others.
“According
to
Christian
Smith,
the
American
sociologist
and
current
William
R.
Kenan
Jr.
Professor
of
Sociology
at
the
University
of
Notre
Dame,
“generosity
is
not
a
random
behavior,
but
a
fundamental
orientation
to
life.
“It
involves
not
only
expressing
moral
goodness
but
also
rejecting
certain
vices
such
as
selfishness,
greed,
fear,
and
meanness.”
Please
disregard
the
opponent’s
attempt
to
attach
negative
labels
to
NAPO
and
instead
recognize
the
potential
for
a
generous
leader
in
NAPO
to

with
H.E.
Bawumia
to
drive
Ghana’s
agenda.
Be
there
at
his
outdooring
tomorrow;
it
will
be
historic!
Ghana
needs
a
big-hearted
president
and
vice
president.”
