National Chairman of the NDC, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, has said the party’s improved performance in the Ashanti Region was the result of deliberate grassroots engagement in areas previously considered difficult.
Speaking during a visit to the Nsuta-Kwamang-Beposo Constituency as part of his thank-you tour, he noted that the region had long been seen as a stronghold of the opposition, but the party took a strategic decision to directly engage residents.
“We decided to go to those difficult areas to speak to the people, and slowly we were able to campaign. The results show we performed better than we envisaged,” he said.
Mr. Asiedu Nketia commended traditional leaders and residents for their support, describing their contribution as key to the party’s electoral gains.
He emphasised the importance of the Ashanti Region in national elections, stating that no political party can afford to ignore it.
The NDC chairman also assured residents that the party remains committed to addressing their concerns, adding that the government is working to improve conditions across the country.
