A Political scientist at the University of Ghana, Dr Kwame Asah-Asante says the strategy of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) ahead of the 2024 general election should be providing workable solutions to the challenges facing the people.
He says the party must ensure that its policy proposals resonate with the grassroots because power emanates from the people.
“The strategy is that you want the women to speak more, you want to let the public engage with the women, you want the women not to also deviate from the general strategy that you are carrying along and you want to showcase both candidates very well for them to articulate clearly their policies and programs to go down to the grassroots.
Remember that power emanates from the grassroots, share in their pain, share in their problem, and be ready to offer solutions that are workable, that are easy to understand and that can resonate with the people. Be honest when they have something to talk to you about your past, arrogance must be eschewed from your way of life, you must be forthright with information, and above all, you must be persons who have the vision, the tenacity of purpose and you have what it takes to run the affairs of the country when given the opportunity,” he said.
Speaking on the outdooring of the Running mate of the NDC, while speaking to RGG News on Thursday, he advised the NDC to demonstrate that they are persons who have the vision, the tenacity of purpose, and what it takes to run the affairs of the country if given the opportunity.
This, in his view, should be one of the strategies of the main opposition party ahead of the 2024 general election.
The NDC outdoored Professor Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang as running mate to former President John Dramani Mahama at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA) auditorium in Accra on Wednesday, April 24.
