On the second day of John Mahama's #Mahama4Change2024 campaign, thousands of supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ashanti region are marching in Kumasi to welcome him. The "Enti Asanteman Aseda Ni" Walk, which was organized to emphasize the need for change and a departure from the region's voting pattern in the December 7 election, will conclude at Kumasi Jubliee Park. The atmosphere is teeming with enthusiasm as the crowd, wearing T-shirts bearing the NDC logo, chants songs and slogans in support of Mahama's 2024 presidential campaign. The sound of vuvuzelas has added to the excitement of the event.
