Mustapha Gbande, Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), refuted claims that National Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketiah is campaigning for a future presidential run. Gbande stated that Asiedu Nketiah’s recent tours across the country were solely focused on bolstering the NDC's organizational strength. He emphasized these engagements were designed to reinforce the party’s structure and mobilize support at the grassroots level. These trips were not intended as a platform for a personal presidential campaign. Gbande’s statement aims to quell speculation regarding Asiedu Nketiah’s ambitions within the party. The NDC is currently focused on strengthening its base ahead of future elections.
