Volta Regional Vice Chairman of the NDC, George Loh has revealed how the novel coronavirus has negatively impacted their campaign going in the 2020 general election.
According to him, Parties are unable to organize political rallies but have to rely on the media to convey to their message.
“COVID-19 has affected every political party in the country. We cannot organize rallies and we’ve had to rely on interactive media however the pandemic has improved the way we do our campaigns and has also affected it in a way,” he told Samuel Eshun on the Happy Morning Show (HMS).
On the issue of why the NDC has resorted to retail campaign ahead of the 2020 general election, he said “We launched our retail campaign as part of efforts to minimize gatherings,”
The NDC has ahead of general elections launched ‘2020 retail campaign’ at Sefwi Dwinasi in the Western North Region on Wednesday [October 7, 2020]. The flag bearer of NDC Mr John Dramani Mahama in launching the campaign said the next NDC government will touch souls, heal wounds and restore truth and dignity to Ghana.
He said he is committed to working hard to build a Ghana where people’s hopes and aspirations can be met, and with opportunities created for all Ghanaians, not a few privileged citizens.
Mr Mahama, therefore, entreated members and supporters of the NDC to move to every nook and cranny of the country with the message of the NDC as contained in its people’s manifesto.
“I want to assure all the teeming supporters of NDC, our sympathisers, well-wishers and the millions of people waiting to vote for John Mahama and Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang and the NDC that we are winning this election”, he said.
