Nkenkansu (Ashanti Region) 31 March '99
Nkenkansu (Ashanti Region) 31 March '99 Mr Philip Kwabena Antwi Ashanti Regional chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has asked party functionaries to intensify their political campaigns to sustain the goodwill and massive support enjoyed by the party. There should be no room for complacency, he said, adding, "what is required of all members of the party is steadfastness, discipline, sacrifice and hard work". Mr Antwi was addressing a regional youth seminar organised at Nkenkansu in the Offinso district yesterday for all constituency youth organisers in Ashanti. The Regional chairman told them to be alert and help expose those who may attempt in subtle ways to create cracks within their ranks. The party has remained a formidable political force due to the strong sense of unity among its members, he said and urged them not to allow self-seekers to infiltrate their ranks. Mr Anthony Kusi, District Chief Executive for Ahafo-Ano South, predicted a landslide victory for the party in the next elections. The government's pragmatic socio-economic policies had brought about tremendous improvement in the lives of the people particularly those in the rural communities, he stated, adding, "this is our trump-card". Mr Yaw Owusu Obimpeh, the Ashanti Regional Youth Organiser, spoke of plans to educate youth organisers on government programmes.
