Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Ashanti Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Augustus Nana Akwasi has asserted that the Ashanti Region will witness a significant increase in votes favouring the NDC in the forthcoming elections.<\/b><\/p>\n

According to him, attempts by the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) to undermine the NDC and its leadership, will not hold as he remains steadfast in his conviction that the electorate\u2019s perception has shifted positively towards the party.<\/p>\n

Speaking in an exclusive interview with Nana Yaa Brefo and Isaac Ekow JB, Nana Akwasi emphasized that the people of Ghana, particularly those in the Ashanti Region, have come to recognize the spin against the NDC and the former President, John Dramani Mahama.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe votes going to be garnered this year from the Ashanti Region, it has never happened before. You mark my words, we are still working hard in the Region, I can\u2019t disclose the percentage, but it will be 27% more than what we had last election.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey disgraced and shamed John Dramani Mahama with their hate campaign and today Ghanaians know the truth,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Addressing recent allegations made by Chairman Wontumi, who questioned the origins of NDC\u2019s vice-presidential candidate, Nana Jane Opoku-Agyeman, Nana Akwasi refuted the claims as baseless attempts to tarnish her reputation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no truth to these allegations propagated by the NPP,\u201d stated Nana Akwasi. \u201cTheir aim is to discredit her, but Nana Jane Opoku-Agyeman will make history as Ghana\u2019s first female Vice President, inspiring women across the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chairman Wontumi\u2019s allegations against Nana Jane Opoku-Agyeman centred on her regional origins, with claims that she hails from the Northern Region rather than the Central Region as stated.<\/p>\n

Nana Akwasi has dismissed these assertions as baseless.<\/p>\n
