Ghanaians
urged to vote for NPP
Koforidua, June 09, Ghanadot/GNA- Mr Agyarko Kyeremanteng, a
leading member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has observed
that although Ghana has great potentials for becoming an
industrialized nation, the pillage and mismanagement of her
resources by some past governments prevented her from
attaining that status.
He therefore urged the electorate to retain the NPP in power
if the populace wants a prudent management of the economy,
especially the revenue from oil receipts, which are
projected to earn the nation some 15 billion US dollars by
2015.
Addressing the Koforidua Polytechnic chapter of the Tertiary
Education Students Confederacy (TESCON) of the NPP during a
handing over ceremony in Koforidua over the weekend, Mr
Kyeremanteng pleaded with Ghanaians not the let the golden
opportunity of ushering Ghana into the comity of prosperous
nation “elude us” by retaining NPP in power.
He said under the stewardship of the NPP, a very sound
tendering of the economy had been devised, adding that
retaining NPP in power would mean that Ghanaians would be
experiencing an improved standard of living in the
foreseeable future.
The former presidential aspirant said if on the other hand,
a mistake was made by the electorate in voting into power a
different party, that dream would fizzle-out leaving the
average Ghanaian in a nightmarish situation as happened in
the recent past.
Mr. Kyeremanteng said there were many nations in the world
who were not endowed with natural resources as compared to
Ghana but had emerged as prosperous nation due to the
prudent use of the few resources at their disposal.
Mr Abubakar Alhassan, out-going President of Koforidua
Polytechnic TESCON, promised the support of student
activists in making known NPP’s vision to the people.
The programme, which was presided by the NPP’s Parliamentary
Candidate for New Juaben South Constituency, Miss Bernice
Boateng, saw the swearing-in of Mr Simon Ackah as President
and Mr. Osafo Osei as vice.
