Deputy General Secretary (Operations) of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mustapha Foyo Gbande, has appealed to the party’s grassroots to remain patient with the leadership as they work to address their concerns.

Speaking on Adom FM’s “Dwaso Nsem” on July 10, 2025, Gbande revealed that the volume of calls he receives daily is overwhelming, noting that he is unable to respond to everyone.

For instance, he said on one occasion when he did not pick someone's calls, the person left him messages that he does not pick up calls, to which he responded, “Have you been told that I am a communication centre?"

He went on to explain that; "I can’t answer every call... Sometimes, I pick up calls and the caller remains mute. The pressure on party executives is intense and sometimes unmanageable."

He admitted that while the demands of the grassroots are valid, party officials are working under difficult conditions and require the support and understanding of members at all levels.

Despite the challenges, Gbande expressed appreciation for the loyalty and efforts of the party's base.

He assured the supporters that their grievances are not being ignored and will be addressed in due time.

“We appreciate all the efforts of our grassroots members. At the right time, every grievance will be met,” he said.
