Deputy Secretary General of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Nana Obiri Boahen has urged the opposition NDC to stop daydreaming "and hopes that the minority will win 70% of the parliamentary seats in the 2020 elections.

According to Obiri Boahen, who speaks loudly, the National Democratic Congress will never be able to win a majority in the House in the upcoming parliamentary elections.

"he [ Haruna Iddrisu} can continue to hallucinate. He can continue to daydream. Even picking, filling and submitting forms have become a nightmare for the NDC and they are talking about winning majority seats in Parliament. We will give them a sound beating [in the 2020 elections]."
