Correspondence from Ashanti Region

After facing a tough time from three solid contenders in his quest to retain the seat, Augustus Andrews Nana Kwasi has still emerged as the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the opposition NDC.

The incumbent regional chairman, Nana Kwasi who secured 637 votes scored against his contenders like Evans Amankwah who also had 572 votes, Yaw Owusu Obimpeh 137 votes, and Enoch Amoako Nsiah 4 votes.

After being declared winner, Augustus Andrews Nana Kwasi thanked delegates for the trust reposed in him and called for unity.

Reiterating his commitment to making sure the party gains power in 2024, the re-elected chairman urged members to dissolve the various camps and fight in unity to secure power in 2024.

"No particular person won, and nobody lost. We've all won it together. Now that we've won, let's dissolve all camps like camps A, B, C, etc, and get united.

Fighting in unity is the only means through which we can retrieve power from this incompetent NPP government with ease," he said.
