NPP congratulates Donald Trump for US election victory

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has extended its congratulations to the United States President-elect from Republican Party, Donald Trump, and the Vice President-elect, J.D. Vance, on their victory in November 5 presidential elections. 

In a press statement signed by the General Secretary of the NPP, Justine Kodua Frimpong, the NPP described the win as a decisive endorsement of the Republican Party's vision and principles by the American people.

 “The NPP also congratulates the United States of America for chalking yet another significant milestone in its democratic credentials following the peaceful conduct of the elections”, he stated.

He further noted that America has set an example, expressing hope that Ghana will draw valuable lessons from this as it approaches its own presidential elections on December 7. 

“It is no secret that the NPP has a longstanding close relationship with the Republic Party and shares a lot of things in common with the Republicans including the great ELEPHANT symbol, political orientation and ideology, as we both belong to the global alliance of centre-right political parties, the International Democrat Union (IDU)”, he added.

Mr Frimpong expressed the NPP’s enthusiasm over the increasing global support for centre-right philosophies, stating that he hoped the NPP would also be victorious in the December elections as both parties pursue bold solutions for their countries. 

“We wish the Trump administration the very best in their tenure of office as the incoming Bawumia administration, by God’s grace, hopes to build on the already fruitful relationship between the two political parties and nations for mutual benefits”, he said.
