Nana Konadu
calls for support for successful governance
Tema, March 10, Ghanadot/GNA – Former First Lady, Nana
Konadu Agyemang Rawlings on Tuesday underscored the need for
Ghanaians, especially members of the National Democratic
Congress (NDC) to rally behind President John Evans Atta
Mills to run a successful government to develop the nation.
She said the ruling government has come to relieve Ghanaians
of undue hardships from the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP)
government and called on all to pray unceasingly for God’s
guidance and direction that the leadership runs the nation
to the satisfaction of all.
Nana Konadu made the call when she addressed women from Tema,
Manhean and Ashaiman at Tema to show appreciation to the
constituents for voting massively for the victory of the NDC
in the 2008 elections.
Together with her entourage, she toured the Ashaiman and
Tema main markets to thank the women who responded with the
NDC slogan “Yasesem”, meaning we have changed the system.
Most of the women who followed the former First Lady wore
the red beret of the 31st December Women’s Movement and were
clad in NDC paraphernalia.
She gave the assurance that the nation, under the able
leadership of President Mills and his qualified Ministers
would administer the government according to the party’s
manifesto saying that, already these have started with the
reduction in the prices of petroleum products.
According to her, plans were underway to implement measures
that would bring relief to the people but stressed the need
that these are reciprocated with hard work and honesty in
their daily activities.
The Former First Lady said the government would ensure that
social vices such as armed robbery, corruption and narcotic
deals were eliminated from the system for sanity to prevail.
