I can confidently say that NDC is ready for power in 2024-Samuel Ofosu Ampofo

Former National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress, Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, has said the NDC is ready to secure power come December 2024.

Appearing on the Onua Maakye Show hosted by Yaa Titi on Monday 24th June, 2024, the former chairman indicated that the current structures of the NDC were built even before he exited office as Chair of the party.

Samuel Ofosu Ampofo has made it clear that the NDC is ready to win power from the NPP come December 2024. He indicated that the plans and preparedness of the party to win the upcoming elections were initiated right from the day it was communicated to the NDC that it had lost the 2020 general elections.

According to him, the national executives were very very instrumental in the elections of the branch executives after reports obtained after the 2020 polls across the 16 regions.

“The readiness of the NDC to win power did not start today but right after the 2020 elections which we believe we won but was taken away from us when the matter ended in court. We debriefed and review the general elections in all the regions even before commencing our branch executives elections.

“National executives of the party actively participated in the branch elections for the first time to ensure the basic structure of the party which is the branch, would be well established. The party had been reorganised from the branches to the region even before I left office as National Chairman,” he explained.

“The only structure which was nonexistent at the time was the national structure which the Congress selected the current executives to take care of. So the journey began immediately after the 2020 elections so when we talk about readiness, it is not about seeing some people together today to say that. You need to put structures in place so I can confidently say that NDC is ready for power in 2024 because we did not rest for a day for the journey towards that power,” he added.

The former chairman said the last thing the party has done was the naming of the campaign team, and is expecting that they launch their manifesto to seal the processes needed to officially commence the campaign.

Mr. Ofosu Ampofo has promised to get intensely involved in the campaign to bring John Dramani Mahama and the NDC into power.
