No witch
hunting says the NDC
Sunyani, Jan 6, Ghanadot/GNA – Mr John Owusu
Agyeman, Brong Ahafo Regional Chairman of the National
Democratic Congress, has given the assurance that the party
would not witch-hunt members or supporters of the New
Patriotic Party in the Region or elsewhere.
“We shall play politics with them for the next four years in
a matured way, so nobody should entertain any fears.
“We need reconciliation in the country as Professor John
Evans Atta Mills (President-Elect) has indicated to be
President of a united Ghana,” he said.
The Regional Chairman was addressing a press conference
organised by the party to express the party’s appreciation
to traditional authorities, the people, Electoral
Commission, the media “as well as all those who helped to
make the general election from December 7 to January 2
successful”.
Mr Agyeman congratulated Professor Mills for winning the
Presidency as well as NDC Members of Parliament-Elect.
He said it was the hope of the party in the Region that with
its majority in Parliament and with the cooperation of the
minority parties including the NPP, “Professor Mills and his
government would deliver the goods so we can have a better
Ghana.
“As a party in the Region we shall give the Mills government
our total support since without unity we cannot move the
country forward,” Mr Agyeman stressed.
The Regional Chairman said the NDC had realized that under
the NPP the country was politically polarized as almost
every State institution was politicized and gave assurance
that the NDC government would correct this.
“We shall help Professor Mills to correct this
politicization of institutions so that we can live in peace
as one people in a country with a common destiny,” he said.
Mr Agyeman said the NDC had learnt from its past mistakes
“and we shall ensure that the new administration of
Professor Mills would deliver to the satisfaction of all
Ghanaians”.
The Regional Chairman was flanked by Mr Kwadwo Opoku
Atuahene, Vice Chairman, Mr Samuel Adjei, Regional
Secretary, and other officials of the party in the Region.
In attendance were some ecstatic members and supporters of
the party who danced to music provided.
