Dec 7 elections: Legon and Madina set to host final rallies of NPP, NDC
Preparations are in full swing as Ghana’s two major political parties, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP), gear up for their biggest rallies and campaign events ahead of election Day on December 5.
In a surprising twist, both parties have selected venues in close proximity to each other, setting the stage for a dramatic showdown of political energy and support.
The NDC has chosen the Zurak Park in Madina for their rally, while the NPP will gather just a short distance away at Legon.
At the Zurak Park, a flurry of activity is underway as enthusiastic NDC supporters work tirelessly to ensure everything is in place for the highly anticipated event on Thursday, December 5. Stages are being set, decorations are being mounted, and logistics fine-tuned to create a memorable and impactful rally.
“We are making sure everything is beingn done well to welcome John Dramani Mahama. The IGP has already been here, and we have the support of the police to control the crowd,” Said Ludwig Hlodze, Director of Logistics and Protocol for NDC.
Similarly, the NPP is making strategic preparations at their Legon venue, with an air of excitement building among supporters. Some members of the party were on site to make sure arrangements are well put together to win the hearts of supporters who will come to the Legon park venue.
“Everything has been smooth, and we are ready. We are inviting all Ghanaians to be here and to listen to the good message the NPP has for them” Isaac Jay Hyde, Dep. National Youth Organiser stated.
The Legon-Madina stretch, notorious for its heavy traffic, is set to become a driver’s nightmare as the two major political parties converge on the area for their final campaign rallies.
With both parties’ supporters flooding the route, the already congested roadway is expected to experience an unprecedented surge in traffic.
As the rallies approach, all eyes will be on Madina and Legon to witness the power play of political messaging, crowd mobilization, and party loyalty.
