More Ghanaians say PNC will win 2008
election - Mahama
Accra, July 15, GNA – Dr Edward Mahama, Peoples National
Convention (PNC) Presidential candidate, on Tuesday said his
party would win the 2008 presidential elections come
December 7th, judging from peoples’ comments from his
campaign tours so far.
“I asked some of my investigators to be on the ground and
listen to peoples comments during my tour and the response
they gave me was that, they prefer the Northerner because he
is more honest,” he told the Ghana News Agency (GNA) on his
return from the Brong Ahafo Regional tour.
He also said he was personally impressed with peoples’
responses during meetings in the halls of towns he visited
where some people even confirmed to him that his messages
were more practical than other candidates.
Dr Mahama was in the Brong Ahafo last week to reach out to
the rural farmers and share with them ideas that could help
them develop themselves.
“When I went to the villages, what I realized was that my
political counterparts were taking advantage of the
ignorance of people especially those in the rural areas.”
He said the PNC’s main message was “Economic Independence
Now,” because the party was determined to use agriculture to
help the economy grow.
Dr Mahama expressed concern about the perception of some
people that, the PNC could not win this year’s elections and
explained that, it was only a few people who went about
deceiving people.
“The People’s National Convention is a well organized
national political group with a clear cut programme that
lays claim to the Nkrumaist heritage,” he said calling on
Ghanaians to vote massively for the party on December 7,
2008.
