But the NDC has never won the Ashanti Region, Have they?
Unfortunately for the NDC faithfuls, what they don't know and are refusing to assert their minds to is that not only ashanti revered the king. All Akans in Ghana and even some none Akans so please please don't belittle the issues. The NDC leadership must do something about this because this is not only for 2020 general elections but this will create deep seated problems for the party and subsequent years and the future. You can insult on this platform but my advice get your NDC leadreship to find a lasting solution cos fact is the Akans are in the majority in Ghana than any tribe so wise up NDC and stop your pride. I don't think JDM would even dare to even respond if it were the National Imam who even made a mistake or lied on the account of the event on the 2016 election
JM is above any chief, King or personality in Ghana. At UN, telling the world how powerful your kingdom is and what it has so far done is important, but accuracy is also necessary. What will the international bodies now think of JM ? a pretender of peace maker, a betrayal or a real gentleman as always associated with him? In 2008 and 2012, the King is telling us that, he couldn't persuaded Nana Addo from almost plunging this nation to disaster or he the king was wishful for nana addo as president at all course? My professor kept telling me, our biggest problem or hindrance to development in Ghana is the high hypocrisy and inability to tell the truth no matter how it taste.

The linguist pleaded with the Ashanti overlord to “pardon” and “forgive” his grandchildren who, at that point, where still on their knees seeking mercy from the king. "Your own grandchildren.

Please, forgive them,’’ Baffour Kantankrakyi said.
Gabby, Bediatuo Undermining Asantehene – Ashanti Group Alleges - 03-May-2018 A group calling itself the Concerned Youth of Ashanti has strongly accused leading member of the New Patriotic Party, (NPP), Gabby Asare Otchere Darko and the Executive Secretary to the President Asante Bediatuo of speaking ill and undermining the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II. Dr. Nana Agyenim Boateng, President of the Concerned Youth of Ashanti said all the negative things being said about the Asantehene by the two individuals have contributed to the Monarch’s anger. Agyenim Boateng’s comment come after photos of some NPP executives kneeling before the revered Ashanti King to beg him at the Manhyia Palace emerged on Wednesday. The executives including acting general secretary John Boadu and Ashanti regional Chairman Antwi Boasiako popularly called Chairman Wontumi are seen in the photos attempting to make peace with the Asantehene who was reported to have complained bitterly about certain actions by some NPP members against him. Reports also indicate that some elements within the NPP are attempting to pitch the Okyehene against the Asantehene. The incident has sparked reactions from youth groups under the Ashanti kingdom who have vowed to hit back at critics of Asantehene.
