Monark Dankwah, communications officer for the Movement for Change’s France chapter, believes that Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh’s nomination as the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) running mate for the 2024 presidential election was a catastrophic mistake.
He branded the medical practitioner as disrespectful and arrogant, and his nomination for the NPP ticket will have no impact.
“Who did you say had been chosen as the running mate?” NAPO? In my quiet time, I have always prayed that they select him since he will offer no value to the NPP’s ticket. I’ve had a close encounter with him. He is not just arrogant, but also disrespectful. If such a person is chosen as a running mate, and in the unlikely event that he becomes the Vice President, you can imagine the dreadful things he will do.
It is not surprising that a self-acclaimed mate has settled on a co-mate who speaks so recklessly. Is it not the same NPP people who told us that it was arrogant for someone to speak to Ghanaians about the no chalk saga, and yet, they have selected someone who speaks so recklessly and with disrespect to Ghanaians? What was his response to the questions he was asked about the dumsor timetable? He told journalists to tell those who were demanding a timetable to design their own timetable. As for the NPP, they will come after you when they think you are arrogant and disrespectful, yet they see nothing wrong with what their reckless people say.”
He also wondered why the party took so long to name the former Education Minister as running mate when it was clear he was the one.
“A doctor who removes teeth is the running mate, and yet you kept so long? I have had a personal encounter with him. He came to my office when I was working with Airtel in 2014, and he was so rude to me. Since that time, I have never liked him. This is a personal encounter. Some people may have different opinions about him, but this is based on my personal encounter with him. He is not someone who can contain himself under intense or extreme pressure. So if, in the unlikely event, he becomes the Vice President and he messes up the economy as chair of the economic management team like Dr. Bawumia has done and we complain as Ghanaians, you can imagine how he will talk to us.”
Monark Dankwah added that he thought the NPP was going to select someone who is more effective to partner with Dr. Bawumia; however, they have selected an someone with an incompetent personality.
“He is incompetent and ineffective, and that is something that will go to our advantage,” he told Dr. Ren on Rainbow Radio 92.4 FM, UK, via Zoom.
