So far so good, we trust the listening NDC government to deliver - Nsuta Manhene
Nana Asamoah Gyamfi Sekyere, the Chief of Nsuta, expressed cautious optimism in the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), indicating that early signs of governance under President John Dramani Mahama have inspired confidence among residents of the area. He noted visible improvements in infrastructure, particularly ongoing work on the Nsuta-Kwamang road. He described the presence of road construction equipment and machinery on site as a clear indication that the government was responding to long-standing concerns in the area.
The Nsuta Manhene also pointed to a growing sense of calm across the country since the NDC assumed office, noting that national conditions appeared to be stabilising. He highlighted persistent challenges, especially with critical road networks that support agriculture, drawing attention to the Birim road. He described the Birim road as vital to the local economy but largely unusable during the rainy season, a situation that continues to disrupt the transportation of farm produce and forces farmers to relocate their produce to Ejura.
Johnson Asiedu Nketia, the NDC National Chairman, visited Nsuta Kwamang Beposo in the Sekyere Central District as part of his three-day Ashanti Regional "Thank You Tour" following the party's victory in the 2024 general election. He acknowledged the crucial role played by chiefs, clergy and grassroots supporters in securing the party's electoral success. He said that the NDC's strategy included an intensified campaign in the Ashanti Region, which allowed the party to significantly improve its performance, increasing its vote share to above 30 percent and securing eight parliamentary seats.
