with party

Ghanadot/GNA – Mr. Eric Opoku, Deputy Brong-Ahafo
Regional Minister, on Wednesday challenged Ghanaians to vote
massively against the National Democratic Congress (NDC), in
the 2012 General Election if they do not realise any
improvement in their living conditions.
He said: “If by the end of our four-year term and the people

rule the country again”.

political and ethnic persuasions.

appointments as a serious challenge to the NDC and urged

Chief Executives into office and urged them to work with the
people for the development of their districts and the
country as a whole.

said the NDC was determined to retain power and advised the
Chief Executives to work diligently towards the country’s
re-construction.
