A United Front in Nandom: Can the NDC’s “3 Ks” Unseat the Incumbent NPP Ambrose Dery?
The recent gathering of Dr. Richard Kuuire, Professor Benjamin Kunbuor, and Hon. Cuthbert Baba Kuupiel has sent shockwaves through the political landscape of the Nandom Constituency. The apparent reconciliation of these former rivals has sparked speculation about a united front among the NDC’s “3 Ks” and their potential to challenge the incumbent NPP’s Ambrose Dery in the upcoming parliamentary elections.
For years, the NDC in Nandom has been plagued by internal divisions and infighting, allowing the NPP to maintain a stronghold on the constituency. However, this latest development suggests a possible shift in the political winds. A united front among the “3 Ks” could potentially galvanize the NDC’s base and attract undecided voters who are dissatisfied with the status quo.
The question on everyone’s mind is whether the NPP can consolidate their efforts to counter this new alliance. Ambrose Dery, the incumbent MP, has long been a formidable force in Nandom politics, but even he may struggle to withstand a united NDC front.
As the elections draw near, one thing is clear: the people of Nandom deserve a robust and competitive race that addresses the pressing issues facing their constituency. A united NDC, led by the “3 Ks,” could provide just that. It’s time for the NPP to take notice and for the people of Nandom to demand more from their leaders.
The stage is set for a thrilling contest in Nandom. Will the NDC’s “3 Ks” prove to be the game-changer that unseats the incumbent NPP, or will Ambrose Dery’s experience and machinery prove too strong to overcome? Only time will tell.
