The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, has emphasized the necessity for a change in the dynamics of political competition.

He stressed that political parties should shift their focus towards achieving excellence, with Ghana as the ultimate beneficiary.

In an interview with the media, the General Secretary expressed his view, stating that "competition should persist, but it should no longer be a mere race for the NDC to outperform the NPP. Instead, it should be about the NDC doing what is necessary to make Ghana prosper and content."

Expanding on the concept of competitiveness, he suggested that "when Ghana is genuinely content with our performance, our competitiveness against the opposition becomes a higher form of competition."

Fifi Kwetey encouraged the NDC to rise above the common practice of comparing track records and start striving for excellence, rather than solely using the NPP's disappointing track record as the benchmark, as he believes Ghana deserves better.

Addressing the disillusionment of the youth, he attributed their frustration to the perceived lack of trustworthiness, particularly displayed by the NPP, and the ongoing leadership failures across Africa that have led to recent coup attempts.

Fifi Kwetey also stressed the importance of allowing institutions to operate independently, with a notable mention of the Judiciary and the Electoral Commission.

He also introduced his new initiative, titled "Arise for Ghana," an insightful online episodic series aimed at tackling critical issues related to leadership, governance, values, attitudes, and actions that influence national development. This series will be broadcast weekly on Fifi Kwetey's and the NDC's social media platforms.
