One notable piece of memory of the 2020 election campaign period was when Mahama and his campaign team were banned from stepping their foot in Kyebi after using the term, Akyem Sakawa. There was a general prediction that Mahama would not make even close to 10 percent of votes in those areas. However, Mahama shamed all his critics by securing some massive votes.
The Chairman of the National Democratic Congress, Chairman Ofosu Ampofo did the unexpected as he stormed the Akyem Akroso area. It is worth noting that he is from the Eastern Region. Chairman Ofosu Ampofo joined the Chiefs and the people of Akyem Akroso in the Eastern Region. He joined them to participate in the royal funeral of the Queen Mother of that area, Nana Aboagyewaa Domenaa. Chairman Ofosu Ampofo went to that please in his capacity as the national chairman of the National Democratic Congress and as such, he made a heavy donation on behalf of the National Democratic Congress. Interestingly, he also madea heavy donation separately on behalf of the Former President, John Dramani Mahama. Many people wondered why the Former President himself, John Dramani Mahama, was not there. Some even speculated that Mahama did not make any donation but it was a strategy by Ofosu Ampofo to increase the popularity of Mahama and increase his goodwill too.
In addition, we must place in the backs of our minds that the NDC executive elections is drawing near and Ofosu Ampofo is threatened by the possible candidature of Asiedu Nketsia. As 2024 is gradually drawing near, all three famous Presidential Hopefuls, Alan Kyeremanten, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, and John Mahama has been visibly seen moving from funerals to funeral, mass gatherings to mass gatherings. And this is a very good political strategy. This is because this is the only time left for them to familiarize themselves with the grassroots members.
