The Ahotor project team has said it is still awaiting clarity from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) leadership on the relaunch of the project.
According to a statement from the party, the Functional Executive Committee of the party had proposed to relaunch the Ahotor project at the headquarters on Tuesday, June 7.
On the evening of Thursday, June 2, 2022, the project team said the national communications officer of the NDC, Sammy Gyamfi, presented an edited version of the draft agreement to it for consideration.
On this same Thursday evening, the project team said it also presented additional edits to the ones done by the national communications officer for consideration.
“We did not hear from FEC throughout the weekend, so we focused on the preparations for the relaunch on Tuesday, June 7, 2022,” it added.
“In the morning of Monday, June 6, 2022, while preparing for the relaunch on Tuesday, Sammy Gyamfi called me and delivered a message from the National Chairman, Hon. Ofosu Ampofo that the relaunch of the Ahotor has been put on hold.”
The project team said this was the last communication regarding the relaunch of the Ahotor Project with the NDC’s FEC.
“We are still waiting for FEC official communication regarding the relaunch of Ahotor Project,” it added in the statement.
The statement was in response to a publication that was said to be coming from the General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah dated June 9 but issued on June 8, 2022, relating to the relaunch of the Ahotor Project.
For Immediate Release.
Re:Re – Ofosu Ampofo Goes Dirty
Our attention has been drawn to a publication with the above heading purporting to be coming from the General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah dated June 9 but issued on June 8 2022, relating to the relaunch of the Ahotor Project.
The project aims to set up all 275 constituencies with micro-businesses to provide revenue.
We wish to explain as follows:
We wish to assure the NDC membership that our resolve to equip the base with the necessary tools for financial independence is still as strong as ever.
Long Live NDC
Long Live Ghana
