  "account": "Sylvester Tetteh, the General Secretary hopeful of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has predicted an unexpected outcome in the party’s upcoming national executive election. He made the claim during an appearance on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen on Monday, September 7. Tetteh insisted that endorsements alone are not enough to secure a victory, and that the delegates would ultimately decide the outcome at the polls, regardless of the endorsements secured by some candidates.\n\nHe warned that history would repeat itself, just as it did during John Boadu’s time, hinting at a \"shocking\" development in Kumasi. Tetteh cited examples of General Secretaries who led the party to humiliating defeats, such as Ohene Ntow, Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie, or Sir John, and John Boadu, and noted that none of them were re-elected. These past instances suggest that Tetteh believes that the outcome of the upcoming election will be unlike the previous defeats.",
