The Volta Regional branch of the governing National Democratic Congress(NDC) says the NDC is keeping a smooth sailing of its campaign in the region to ensure a first round victory for President Mahama come December 7 2016.

The Volta Regional Youth Organizer, Egypt Kudoto, said in an interview with Accra-based Citi FM that ” in spite of all those other challenges; in terms of all other candidates who are going on the independent platform, we still have it going very well with us.”

Already the governing party said it has targeted about a million votes from the Volta Region in the upcoming general elections.

President John Dramani Mahama is expected to take his campaign tour to the Volta Region on Monday, after he ended the second leg tour of his campaign in the Greater Accra Region.

He will spend five days touring more than ten constituencies in the volta region.

Speaking on Mahama’s visit to the region Monday, Kudoto said region is very expectant and is in the mood to receive the President.
