Wuruyie-Ashanti, June 17, GNA – Ashanti Regional branch of Nana Akufo-Addo’s Campaign Team on Sunday began a massive campaign tour of New Edubiase Constituency which is considered a stronghold of the National Democratic Congress (NDC). The NPP has decided to wrestle the seat together with that of Ejura-Sekyedumase and Asawasi which are currently being occupied by the NDC to consolidate its hold on Ashanti Region. The team, which included Mr F.F. Anto, Former Ashanti Regional Chairman, Alhaji Sheriff Baba, Former Ghana’s Ambassador to Guinea, Mr George Ayisi-Boateng, a Founding Member, Madam Serwaa Derkyi, Mr Patrick Acheampong and Nana Opong Mensah visited Acheasewa, Kyerebabi, Kotwea, Aboabo and Wuruyie communities.
Addressing separate meetings, Mr Anto said the Party was poised to win the seat, which had eluded them in all general elections since 1992. He assured the people that the NDC would not return to power therefore, it was incumbent on them to vote for the NPP for development in their communities.
