Dubbed ‘Waakye Fest’, the ladies will converge at the Ashaiman Zongo Roundabout between 10:00am and 2:00pm serve free food to create a platform to campaign for the party’s flagbearer Nana Akufo-Addo. “NPP Loyal Ladies will be serving Waakye to the residents of Ashaiman as part of our campaign to encourage Ghanaians to hold on as change is imminent” a statement issued by the group said. Opponents of the NPP described the strategy of the group as vote buying something the NPP and the ruling National Democratic Congress have been accused of ahead of this year’s December 7 general elections. But the National Youth Organiser of the NPP Mr Sammi Awuku, rejected the description of the kooko party as vote buying.
