The elections will be won or lost at the polling station. The station will be do or die affair….I haven’t said all die be die.

According to Lawyer Obiri Boahen, Mahama is only giving out ‘senseless’ threats to the NPP. Victor Smith the leading member NDC indicated that the country wants and demands peace. Therefore all political leaders, electoral commission, state counsels and government must promote peace and pleads that we do not repeat the things that happened during the 2020 general elections.
