General Secretary for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia has made an argument for why he is vying for the chairmanship position of the party.
On Thursday, October 14, the long-serving scribe of the largest opposition party officially announced that he will contest the NDC Chairmanship position.
While making the announcement, Johnson Asiedu Nketia said he has loads of experience and will be a good leader for the party when voted for the position.
“I participated in the struggle against the military dictatorship in this country, after which I came to Parliament. I was there for 12 years and chaired several committees.
“I tasted executive positions by being the Deputy Minister in charge of Agriculture. I have served as Board Chairman, among others.
“I am confident that with my experience I will be a good leader and example to my party,” Johnson Asiedu Nketia said.
While many believe the NDC General Secretary stands a good chance of winning the upcoming elections, he knows he will face a tough contest from the incumbent, Samuel Ofosu Ampofo.
