National Democratic Congress Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketiah has issued a firm warning to party members: stay united or risk the kind of internal collapse currently unfolding within the opposition New Patriotic Party. Speaking during his Thank You Tour in the Eastern Region, Asiedu Nketiah drew a sharp contrast between the NDC’s post-election cohesion and the NPP’s bitter flagbearer contest, which he described as a “contest to hell.”
The NPP’s internal race has been marked by public attacks, accusations, and deepening rifts among aspirants—an image Asiedu Nketiah wants the NDC to avoid at all costs. His message was clear: discipline and unity are non-negotiable if the party hopes to maintain its governing strength and deliver on its promises.
Addressing concerns from members who have yet to receive government appointments, the chairman urged patience. He acknowledged the sacrifices made by grassroots organisers and assured them that their loyalty would not go unnoticed. The Mahama administration, he said, is committed to rewarding dedication—but timing and strategy must guide the process.
The Thank You Tour, which spans 16 constituencies, is part of Asiedu Nketiah’s effort to reconnect with the party base, reinforce internal structures, and calm tensions brewing over appointments and power dynamics. His remarks also serve as a subtle reminder that the NDC’s current stability is a strategic asset—and one that must be protected.
As the NPP grapples with its leadership crisis, the NDC is being urged to learn from its rival’s missteps and focus on consolidation, not competition.
