The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has officially kicked off its nationwide branch elections, with former Greater Accra Regional Chairman and key party figure, Ashie Moore, delivering a powerful message of gratitude and recognition to the party’s grassroots leaders.
In an emotionally charged statement, Ashie Moore praised branch executives, polling station officers, and dedicated party activists for their unwavering commitment and sacrifices, declaring that the NDC has not forgotten the countless efforts they have made to keep the party strong through both victories and setbacks.
“We have not forgotten your sacrifices,” Moore emphasized, acknowledging the tireless work of grassroots members who have served as the backbone of the party’s political machinery across the country.
As thousands of party faithful head to the polls to elect new branch executives, the elections are being closely watched as a critical exercise that will shape the NDC’s internal structure and political strategy ahead of future national contests.
Moore described the grassroots as the “engine room” of the party, stressing that every electoral success achieved by the NDC has been built on the dedication, loyalty, and hard work of ordinary members at the community level.
He urged party members to conduct themselves peacefully and democratically throughout the electoral process, emphasizing unity, discipline, and respect for the outcome of the elections.
Political analysts view the branch elections as a crucial test of the party’s organizational strength and cohesion following its return to power. The exercise is expected to determine the next generation of local leaders who will spearhead mobilization efforts and strengthen the party’s presence nationwide.
For many NDC supporters, Ashie Moore’s message serves as a powerful reminder that while national leaders often occupy the spotlight, it is the grassroots membership that remains the foundation upon which the party’s success is built.
As voting gets underway across the country, one message resonates throughout the NDC ranks: the sacrifices of the grassroots have not been forgotten, and their role in shaping the party’s future remains as important as ever.
