Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, the national chairman of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), has asked party members to maintain composure and unity as President John Dramani Mahama’s administration gradually settles in and expands its appointment chances.
In the Asuogyaman Constituency, Mr. Asiedu Nketiah met with Assembly members, previous party officials, ward coordinators, branch and constituency executives, and cadres. He promised supporters that their patience will soon be rewarded.
After the NDC won the election, he remained in the area for three days as part of a “Thank You Tour.”
The NDC Chairman urged understanding in response to members’ worries over their lack of appointment to government positions, emphasizing that the leadership is striving to guarantee that all devoted members get the chance to serve.
Mr. Asiedu Nketiah also warned against internal divisions, citing the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) as an example to avoid.
“If we do what we want with the positions we have gotten, our party will be divided like the NPP’s. But I know that will never happen,” he said.
He added:
“What NPP is now doing is a contest to hell. The flagbearer aspirants are criticising each other and are enumerating the sins and faults of each other.”
The NDC Chairman emphasised the need for unity and discipline within the party to sustain its momentum and avoid the kind of infighting he says is tearing the NPP apart.
