The Ashanti Regional campaign team of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has adopted the “Jehovah Witness” campaign strategy to win votes ahead of this year’s elections.
Speaking on Kingdom FM, Mr. Augustus Nana Akwasi Andrews, Regional Chairman of the NDC said the strategy has helped reduce the workload on the few people who have always led their campaign.
He said, “former President John Dramani Mahama on his visit to the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II in the region tasked us to carry out our campaign like how the Jehovah Witness people do by going from house to house to spread the Gospel”.
“As I speak with you, we have launched all our campaign teams in the various constituencies”. Forming campaign teams at the grass root level has made our members very responsible and reduced the work load on us,” he added.
Explaining the strategy and how they go about it, Chairman Andrews said “Jehovah Witness people enter your house in humility and after talking to you, they leave leaflet to you. We all know our President Nana Addo has said this election is all about track record hence the NDC is compiling all projects in the region on a leaflet. We will make sure to enter every house in humbleness and respect, tell them what we have done”.
Meanwhile General secretary of the NDC has cautioned the campaign team members to abide by the Covid-19 safety protocols as they move from house to house.
