A prominent political party in Ghana, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is renowned for its dedication to progressive governance and social democracy.

Following the coup in 1981, Jerry John Rawlings led the Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC), which gave rise to the NDC on June 10, 1992.

As Ghana moved from military to democratic rule, the party was instrumental in the process.
The NDC's emphasis on cultural variety and peaceful cooperation, which is reflected in its main slogans, is another attribute that sets it apart.

The party's vision for a cohesive and peaceful Ghanaian society is powerfully expressed by these slogans: "3y3 Zu" and "3y3 Za."

The National Democratic Congress's (NDC) Ghanaian slogans, or jargon if you will, "3y3 Zu" and "3y3 Za," are full of deep connotations that highlight harmony, peaceful cooperation, and cultural diversity.

These catchphrases, which were created by the party's founder, former President Jerry John Rawlings, encapsulate the NDC's unwavering dedication to promoting unity and cooperation among Ghanaians.

"3y3 Za" comes from "3y3 Zamananlafia," which means "peaceful coexistence," while "3y3 Zu" was taken from the Hausa phrase "3y3 Zumunci," which means "togetherness," according to a recent post by TV3.
