NDC's Unity Walk in Tarkwa to come off on Nov. 25

The Unity Walk campaign of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) slated for Tarkwa in the Western region, will now come off on Saturday, November 25.

The walk which was initially fixed on November 11, was called off a few days to the advertised time with little explanation from the organisers.  

But Lead organiser and former Chief Executive Officer for Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly, Kojo Bonsu says the walk has been rescheduled to take place this Saturday, at Tarwa, the capital of Tarkwa-Nsuaem Municipal Assembly under the theme: “Mobilisation of the grassroot, a shared responsibility.”

He said the walk in Tarkwa will commence from 6am from the Tamso-Nsuta Junction Station through Tarkwa/Aboso, Market-Circle, Railway Quarters, Cyanide and finally end at the Tarkwa Community Centre where party leaders will interact with supporters.  

The campaign forms part of the NDC’s strategies toward reorganizing its support base and re-energise party faithful as it plans to recapture power in the next general elections to be held in 2020 after suffering a humiliating defeat in the general elections held on December 7, 2016 at the hands of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).

It is the first time the campaign is being organised outside a regional capital as the previous ones were held in Tamale, Accra and Cape Coast in the Northern, Greater Accra and Central Regions respectively.
