The President of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has advised all the 41 defeated Members of Parliament(MPs) in the just-ended New Patriotic Party(NPP) to fear delegates the next time they are going in for an election.

He said “we know that to use the famous words of our one-time General Secretary, we have to continue to fear delegates, but we remain firm in our belief that losing one election cannot and does not mean the end of your political life”.

The President reminded the losing incumbent MPsto take lessons from him who lost several elections but was resolute and his consistency and persistence won him power finally.

“I am a living example. I urge all of us to get over our disappointment quickly and unite to go before the country.”
