The Ashanti Regional Zongo Youth Caucus is making strides in mobilizing and organizing themselves to garner support and enhance the party’s chances of winning more votes in the region.
Confident in their ability to capitalize on the current economic challenges, the group aims to achieve over 30 percent of the votes in the NPP stronghold.
By uniting young individuals from various Zongo Communities in the region, the caucus is optimistic about the opposition NDC’s prospects in the 2024 elections, citing appealing policies such as the 24-hour economy initiative.
During an event aimed at rallying Zongo Youth for Victory in Kumasi, Abdul Basit Yusha, the Ashanti Regional Communication Officer for the Zongo Youth Caucus, expressed the youth’s dedication and commitment to the party’s cause, signaling a potential victory for the opposition.
Yusha noted that the caucus is relentless in their efforts to engage and mobilize people within the Zongo Communities in the Ashanti Region to actively contribute to the party’s success.
Yusha encouraged the Zongo youth to exercise restraint to maintain peace and stability throughout the electoral process.
Former Vice Chairman and ex-Ambassador to Saudi Arabia under Mahama’s administration, Alhaji Saeed Sinare, identified the Ashanti Region as a key battleground for the NDC in the upcoming election and stressed the need for early mobilization.
Alhaji Sinare underscored the importance of vigilance at polling stations to prevent any potential electoral malpractice and stated the NDC’s determination to secure a fair outcome.
Criticizing the current Akufo-Addo-Bawumia government as incompetent, Alhaji Sinare pointed to economic challenges such as currency depreciation, high unemployment rates, and inflation as evidence of the administration’s failures.
He endorsed former President John Mahama’s policies, including the 24-hour economy, as effective solutions to address the country’s pressing issues.
Alhaji Saeed Sinare expressed confidence that the NDC’s performance should exceed 30 percent, citing the uninspiring appeal of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh as the NPP’s flagbearer and running mate, respectively.
