The National Democratic Congress (NDC) is set to embark on a series of activities starting from Friday, July 7, to express gratitude to the people of Assin North for their overwhelming support in the recent by-elections held on June 27. The party’s candidate, James Gyakye Quayson, emerged victorious with an impressive 57.56 percent of the votes, defeating Charles Opoku of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and Bernice Enyonam Sefenu of the Liberal Party of Ghana (LPG).
To kick off the Thank You Tour, the NDC has planned Muslim prayers at the Central Mosque in Breku, the district capital, on Friday. This gesture aims to acknowledge and appreciate the support received from the Muslim community in Assin North.
On Saturday, July 8, there will be two Thanksgiving Services held at the SDA Church and Saviour Church, both located in Breku. These services will provide an opportunity for the NDC to express gratitude to the various religious groups that played a crucial role in the by-election victory.
In a compassionate move, the NDC will also visit the victims of the Assin Dansame accident later on Saturday. This visit demonstrates the party’s commitment to supporting and empathizing with the local community during challenging times.
Additionally, the NDC has organized a community soccer gala at Assin Breku on the same day. The gala aims to foster a sense of unity and celebration among the constituents, further highlighting the party’s appreciation for their unwavering support.
Sunday, July 9, will witness a non-denominational Thanksgiving Service at the Breku Catholic Youth Centre. This event will bring together community leaders and NDC members to express gratitude and reflect on the collective achievement in the by-elections.
The Thank You Tour will culminate in a grand rally at the Breku Methodist School Park later that day. The highly anticipated event will be graced by the Special Guest of Honour, John Dramani Mahama, the 2024 flagbearer of the NDC. Mr. Gyakye Quayson, the victorious candidate, will also address his constituents during the rally, sharing his appreciation and outlining his plans for effective representation.
The NDC’s Thank You Tour serves as a testament to the party’s commitment to engaging with and appreciating the people of Assin North. Through these activities, the NDC aims to foster unity, express gratitude, and solidify the bond between the party and its constituents in Assin North.
