Forgive my offences, attribute my successes to footsoldiers – Asiedu Nketia’s final words as NDC General Secretary

After 17 years of stewardship, Johnson Asiedu Nketia is bowing out of his position as the General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

He is taking this step as he vies for a higher portfolio in the party.

General Mosquito, as he is popularly called, is going up against incumbent Samuel Ofosu Ampofo for the Chairmanship position.

The elections will take place at the Accra Sports Stadium where the NDC is holding its 2022 Delegates Congress.

Addressing the delegates, the General Secretary bade farewell to his members and urged all to forgive any transgressions that may have emanated from his office while serving as the chief scribe.

“Those I’ve offended, may the Lord touch your hearts to forgive me. The credit I have made so far is shared and attributed to the footsoldiers of this party,” he concluded.

The others in the chairmanship race also include Samuel Yaw Adusei and Nii Armah Ashietey.
