The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) has issued a strong call to its members, supporters, and sympathisers to join forces in campaigning for the party’s parliamentary candidate, Bernard Bediako, in the upcoming Akwatia by-election.
In a statement signed by the party’s Eastern Regional Deputy Secretary, Kwaku Boateng, the NDC described the by-election as a crucial opportunity to reclaim the Akwatia seat and demonstrate the unity and strength of the party.
“This by-election presents a crucial opportunity for us to reclaim Akwatia and send a strong message of unity, strength, and purpose,” the statement read.
The party urged its grassroots to engage in door-to-door outreach, community engagements, voter education, and mobilisation efforts ahead of the polls.
Deployment of campaigners, according to the party, will be coordinated from the NDC Party Office in Akwatia, with Mohammed Ismail listed as the contact person for directions.
The statement emphasised that the candidacy of Bernard Bediako reflects the hopes and aspirations of the people of Akwatia, and called on members to rally behind him for victory.
“Victory in Akwatia is within reach — together, we shall deliver it. Your presence, energy, and dedication will inspire hope, energise the campaign, and help secure a decisive win for the NDC,” the statement added.
