NPP election: We thank NDC for making the attempt; we never expected them to show up – Karbo says after boycott

Former Lawra Member of Parliament Anthony Karbo has voiced frustration over the National Democratic Congress (NDC) delegation's decision to withdraw from the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) National Delegates Conference in Kumasi. According to Mr. Karbo, who presided over the event, the NDC representatives exited the conference on Saturday, October 3, before it officially commenced, citing delays in the commencement of the proceedings.

The NDC delegates cited their intention to deliver a solidarity message, yet Mr. Karbo stated that the NPP acknowledged the delegation's compliance with their invitation, despite their premature departure. "I have been aware of the NDC's presence, and I have also been informed of their press interview, in which they stated their unwillingness to wait to deliver their solidarity message.

For this reason, we express our gratitude for their participation, but it is unfortunate they chose not to remain for the entirety of the programme," Mr. Karbo lamented.
