The National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the Manhyia Palace do not have a tense relationship, according to Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.
He claims that the visit of NDC flagbearer John Mahama will allay rumors that there is hostility between them.
When the NDC Presidential Candidate visited the Ashanti Region as part of his trip, he spoke via a linguist and stated: “The NDC is not on good terms with Manhyia.” He has said it all, so it isn’t true.
Additionally, the Asantehene stressed that elections are won at the polling places and called for vigilance at the polls.
In the meantime, Mr. Mahama has denied allegations that he was involved in Monday’s attack on the Asantehene convoy in Techiman.
He described a circulating video as a conscious attempt to harm his and the NDC’s reputations, calling it a phony and artificial intelligence-generated video.
Police claim that the alleged attack happened when the Asantehene was returning from a burial in the Bono East Region’s Nkoranza.
Preliminary evidence indicates that some young people, presumably from Techiman, threw stones at the convoy’s busses.
