He explained that his party went through the right process but was unsuccessful compared to the National Democratic Party (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

He said:

"The voting was very calm and peaceful. However, I am very disappointed with the EC for not giving 40,000 agents the accreditation when we were supposed to just write a common letter, and it was supposed to be released and sorted out like the NDC and was done for the NPP. The two parties were successful with the EC but the New Force hasn't been."

Despite concerns, Nana Kwame Bediako expressed optimism about his chances of securing a victory in the presidential race.
