Asiedu Nketia urges Muslims to remain with NDC


Mr Johnson Asiedu Nketia, Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has urged the Muslim community (Zongo) to stand firm in their allegiance to the NDC, emphasising that the party is their true home.

He said by voting for the NDC in the upcoming December polls, they would not be voting for its Flagbearer, former President John Dramani Mahama and the various Parliamentary candidates but would be voting for their own protection and equal treatment as Ghanaian citizens.

Mr Nketia made the call on Friday October 11, 2024 while addressing a durbar of people at Ziorme, Aflao during his campaign visit to Ketu South.

He asked people in the Zongos not to be deceived but to know that the party that cared about them was the NDC and not the ruling New Patriotic Party.

‘This vote for NDC is a vote for yourself; a vote for your independence; a vote for your dignity; a vote for your treatment as equal citizen of Ghana; a vote to allow you and your children benefit from any government opportunity and
receive equal share like any other citizen of Ghana.

‘If you decide to vote otherwise, you have decided to enslave yourself,’ Mr Nketia rallied. Madam Abla Dzifa Gomashie, Member of Parliament and NDC Parliamentary candidate for Ketu South, thanked her constituents for the love, dedication and loyalty to the NDC over the years.

She highlighted the NDC’s commitment to social democratic ideals and people-centered policies, and urged the people to let the prevailing economic hardship, social injustice, massive corruption and other ills in the country guide them in their choice on December 7, to give the NDC a resounding victory.

Key speakers at the rally, attended by NDC Volta Regional Executives, including Mr Mawutor Agbavitor and Mr James Gunu, the Chairman and the Secretary respectively, as well as other party functionaries, underscored the need for citizens to see the December polls as a communal labour to deliver victory to the NDC to save and reset Ghana on the right track.

Some members of the crowd th
at Ghana News Agency spoke to, reaffirmed their loyalty to the NDC and pledged to work together towards its victory, saying, the rising prices of food like beans was no longer funny and that things had to change for the better.
