The National Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Hon. Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, has expressed optimism about his party’s prospects in the upcoming elections.

Addressing a gathering of party executives and members, he highlighted the NDC’s achievements in mobilizing support across the country and urged continuous efforts to secure victory.

Asiedu Nketiah began by recounting the NDC’s extensive campaign activities. He emphasized;

“For the past two months, we’ve mounted a campaign across the country. We have a very strong position to be able to make a difference between the parties and the finding work to do to contribute towards the removal of the elephant from office.
I’ve just come to thank all of you—national executive members, current and former; regional executive committee members; constituency executive committee members.”

Asiedu Nketiah shared his observations from his tour across Ghana’s 16 regions, visiting over 200 constituencies.

“The message is loud and clear. That message, which I want to deliver to His Excellency John Dramani Mahama, is that the people of Ghana have decided to return you back to the presidency whether you like it yourself or not.”

He emphasized that this sentiment extends beyond the presidency, noting;

“Ghanaians want an absolute majority of our candidates elected into Parliament because there’s a lot of work to be done. We need a strong majority to be able to undertake the institutional reforms that are necessary to reset this democracy.”

In a metaphor-laden critique of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP). He charged;

“Nana Akufo-Addo and his team are riding on the back of a tiger. They fear to get down; otherwise, they could be devoured. But tell them that the longer they remain at the back of the tiger, they will still die anyway because they will die of hunger and thirst.
Even with only 48 hours remaining, they still want to conduct themselves with impunity. Everywhere in the past one week, wherever NDC has been trying to organize a function, they use state powers to undermine that.”
