The Flagbearer and the leader of the largest opposition party in Ghana, H.E John Dramani Mahama was on a 2 day working visit in Oti Region.
Some National Officers of the National Democratic Congress accompanied him through out his tour across the 8 Constituencies.
His first place of visit was at Kpassa, where he paid a courtesy call on Chiefs and some Opinion leaders at the Apostolic Church.
There was a fruitful deliberations.
He proceeded to Damanko and on his way going, he paused and inspected an E- Block project initiated by the NDC government under his leadership to help bring education to the doorstep of the people which was abandoned by the insensitive Government.
Banda was his next point of visit where he made a whistle stop at Kpandai amidst crowd and cheers. President Mahama is a *crowd puller* because i was indeed marvelled at the manner in which people were drawing closer and closer to him to listen to his message.
The NDC party is still attractive to the people and more importantly the grassroots who are determined to work very hard in order to bring back to power the Flagbearer of the party as President in 2020 and this was evidenced in his working visit at Banda.
A mini rally to simply put was organised at Kete- Krachi where JM and the General Secretary of the party took their turn to address the mammoth gathering and the new members who have left New Patriotic Party ( NPP) and joined the National Democatic Congress (NDC).
H.E John Dramani Mahama assured them of a better and more promising future after his victory in 2020. The General Secretary and the Member of Parliament also admonished them to work very hard towards winning 2020 elections.
At Dambai which is the regional capital of Oti Region, H.E John Dramani Mahama paid a courtesy call on the chiefs and the elders as well as the Muslim community where they had a fruitful deliberations.
At the lorry park was the inauguration of the new Regional Executives Committee. Two cars were also presented to the regional office of the party in the Oti region for adminstrative and operations purpose.
The Flagbearer of the party encouraged party supporters to be united and work very hard for 2020 victory.
The Chairman of the party, Elder Ofosu Ampofo also encouraged the sympathizers and supporters of the party to continue to work very hard so as to make the party more attractive to the branches.
Nkwanta South was the next point of visit. As usual, the Flagbearer and his team paid a courtesy call on the chiefs and elders at Gateway which was followed by another courtesy call on the muslim community at the Central Mosque.
The final visit was at the market square and the lorry park. Market women including the yam sellers could not resist the temptations of seeing JM and his team. There was a popular chant, *"we need you back'*, *"we need you back"* which clearly shows how Ghanaians are determined to vote massively for JM and NDC in 2020.
The Flagbearer and his team took their visit to Akan Constituency where a courtesy call was paid on the chiefs and elders followed by a call on the muslim community.
A program was organized at the station where H.E John Dramani Mahama and some party stalwarts took their turn to address the party faithfuls and the sympathizers of the party.
At Bodada, H.E John Dramani Mahama paid a courtesy call on the paramouncy of Buem traditional area.
At Biakoye Constituency,the Flagbearer and his team also paid a courtesy call on the traditional council in Abotoase.The chiefs and elders were not only happy but also prayed for H.E John Dramani Mahama to have a successful and fruitful journey as he embarks on his working visit across the region.
On a whole, the former President's tour was successful and reassuring as Ghanaians at the moment need a leader who appreciates the challenges confronting us as a country and a leader who can reliably offer the perfect antidotes to our challenges with actions and not the cheap unrealistic plagiarized slogans we hear on daily basis from the Akuffo Addo led government.
His return will definitely restore the enviable image of Ghana globally.
