The 24-hour Economy Walk, originally slated for December 2023 but postponed due to the District Level Elections, is now set to be led by former President John Dramani Mahama on Wednesday, January 24, 2024.
Organized by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ashanti Region, the walk aims to raise awareness about the party’s policy among the region’s residents.
The NDC leadership, including National Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketia and Regional Chairman Augustus Andrews Nana Akwasi, confirmed that the procession will traverse the principal streets of Kumasi, concluding at the Kumasi Jubilee Park.
“The planned route for the walk is as follows: Aboabo Post Office, through Pelele to On-the-ran to Manhyia Hospital, proceeding to Alabar Street, Kejetia Roundabout, Hello FM, A-life, Asafo Overpass, Labour Roundabout, and concluding at Jubilee Park,” the statement added
Speakers, including John Mahama, will address the gathering. Concurrently, the NDC flagbearer will continue the “Building the Ghana We Want Tour,” engaging with traders, organized labor, artisans, students, and various community sectors.
The NDC anticipates these events will foster a stronger connection between the party and the people of the Ashanti Region.
