The People’s National Convention (PNC) Women’s Wing has promised to win the upcoming general elections in 2024.
PNC General Secretary Janet Nabla spoke to reporters on Wednesday, March 27, 2024, in Koforidua. She claimed that with its current policies, the PNC, as a third force, had the power to drastically change the course of the nation.
Nabla announced with confidence that they would win the elections in 2024.
“It’s true that we’re winning hands down. Ghanaians are looking for a third force because the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) have alternated power amongst themselves, and Ghanaians have realized that two political parties have not helped them. Ghanaians are looking for a change and that is the PNC. We are coming with full force,” she said.
“PNC, our policies being operated in the country, we have school feeding, National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), GETFund, these are policies that ten PNC in 1999 campaigned about. Ghanaians are those benefitting from these initiatives. We’re coming with full force to be able to implement our programmes the way they are supposed to be implemented. If you pick my programme and you are implementing it, of course, you will have challenges. When we come, we will put more meat into the skeletons you are now looking at.”
In the impending general elections scheduled for December 2024, the Women’s Wing of the PNC has declared its intention to propose women for forty percent of the 257 parliamentary seats.
Operation Get Women Parliamentarians is an effort to strengthen the nation’s multiparty system and increase women’s participation in wider decision-making processes.
