He said party members are demonstrating what former President John Mahama once said that when it comes to violence no party can beat the NDC to it because they come from a revolutionary background.

« That is what they went to show at their internal election, » he said.

He is therefore calling on the Peace Council, Opinion leaders and all peace stakeholders to ensure peace prevails prior to the next election in 2024.

« I know in 2024 when Ghanaians reject them they will resort to violence . . . they are not an alternative party for the people of Ghana, » he said, adding that Ghanaians should continue to have faith the ruling NPP and vote for them.

While proceedings were ongoing at the Congress two rival groups violently clashed throwing stones, blocks, sticks, clubs, chairs among others, causing injury to three persons and destruction to property.
