President Akufo-Addo is expected to begin a three-day thank you tour in the Ashanti Region tomorrow [Friday]. Speaking to Citi News, the Ashanti Regional Secretary of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Sam Pyne said the region is ready to receive the President.
He said the President is expected to address a rally of party members on his final leg of the tour on Sunday, before returning to Accra. “Whatever he is coming to do, so far as he is a President, he comes with state protocol. The only thing that will be purely partisan or purely political is the rally that we will be holding on Sunday so that is what we are looking at.
The rest will be organised by state protocol. The rallies are about meeting with party people and talking about issues that are out and addressing the crowd to say thank you to them for the elections.” A few days ago, the NPP’s Ashanti Regional Communication team announced a boycott on all media outlets as according to the team, the party had neglected them after the election. But Sam Pyne said the party had met with the team and resolved the matter. “It was yesterday that they boycotted radio.
The same yesterday, they tended that decision with another statement and they have started doing what they are suppose to do. We have been speaking to them and we scheduled a meeting with them to resolve this issue.” The President since his electoral victory has been on a thank you tour in some regions in the country. He has so far visited the Northern, Western, Upper West and Upper East regions among others .

hmmmm I never expected this from you Nana.
What kind of president is this even after winning election he is still campaigning. NPP have you seen the kind of man leading GHANA to crush. No wonder he will be a one term president
Sit in Accra and work, this is not what we need now. Have you considered the cost?
What is the difference between the NDC and the Npp if the same thing the criticized John mahama of doing is what they are also doing? This shows that, as Dag Heward mills once said the are all the same, we just have to change them every four years. Thank you tour for what. What of state resources that could support the needy. If mahama did this and nana Addo said he was wasting state resources why then is he doing the same. We will change them in for years, no more eight years change in Ghana any longer.
