Election 2024: ‘Use your right to vote for change’ – Asiedu Nketiah

The National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, has urged Ghanaians to actively participate in the upcoming elections, rejecting the idea of abstaining due to unfulfilled promises by past leaders, particularly from the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

Speaking to residents of Akwasease in the Ahafo Ano North Constituency in the Ashanti Region on Tuesday, November 5, Asiedu Nketiah emphasized that abstaining from voting weakens democracy and reduces the opportunity for meaningful change.

He encouraged the community to stay hopeful, highlighting the importance of holding leaders accountable by participating in the December elections.

“It beats my understanding when I hear people say, they won’t vote just because a government did not fulfil its promises. It may be true that they couldn’t fulfill their promises but that should not limit you from voting.

“If you want to hold them accountable, not voting isn’t the answer. They know you helped put them in power, so they understand that you could vote against them next time. But if you choose not to vote, it gives them an advantage.

“It is the time for us to unite as one people and vote them out. They have been bad at governance,” he stated.
