Former President of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama, is set to embark on a week-long tour of the Ashanti Region from November 30 to December 5.
During his visit, Mahama will engage with local stakeholders, sharing his vision and policies as he rallies support for the upcoming 2024 elections.
The opposition leader is also expected to lead what has been described as a “victory walk” through the region, a move seen as a key part of his campaign strategy to consolidate support in the NPP stronghold ahead of the December polls. Mahama’s visit is anticipated to include meetings with party supporters, community leaders, and other influential figures in the region.
This tour comes at a crucial time as the former president seeks to strengthen his political base in the Ashanti Region, historically a stronghold of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP). Mahama’s efforts to connect with voters will be closely watched as the election campaign intensifies.
