Vote for NPP to show appreciation of development – Mac
Manu
Accra, July 16, Ghanadot/GNA – Mr Peter Mac Manu, National
Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has appealed to
the people of Ada Constituency to vote massively for the
party in December to show appreciation for the massive
infrastructural development in the area.
A statement issued by the party’s headquarters said Mr Mac
Manu made the appeal when he inaugurated the constituency’s
campaign and resource centre at Ada at the weekend.
Mr Mac Manu said the NPP government had been more than fair
to Ada with respect to road construction, provision of
potable water and electricity in areas that had, thitherto,
been deprived of these facilities, as well as building and
equipping of schools and other projects.
“All these are in addition to other progressive policies and
programmes of the NPP government, such as capitation grant
and school feeding programmes that have completely
revolutionized education in Ghana, National Health Insurance
Scheme (NHIS), National Youth Employment, fee-free education
and free medical care for pregnant women among others,” he
said.
The NPP National Chairman said for the party showing such
goodwill and commitment to the people of Ada, “they should,
in their turn, reciprocate with a massive vote for Nana Addo
Dankwa Akufo-Addo for the presidential slot and Mr Kofi
Plahar, the party’s parliamentary candidate, in the December
elections”.
Mr Mac Manu urged all young people who had attained the age
of 18 to register when the voters’ registration exercise
commenced so that they could vote for the NPP in the
elections.
He reminded them that the party was a national political
entity and cut across religion, ethic affiliation and sex
and urged the people of Ada to reject all those who
advocated violence of any kind before, during and after the
elections.
“This is a peaceful nation and the NPP is a party that
cherishes peace and has done everything to ensure that Ghana
remains an oasis of peace in the region,” he said.
Mr Mac Manu appealed to party members to allow access to the
centre by all residents of the constituency without regard
to political or other affiliation while he pledged his
support for the constituency.
Mr Plahar expressed his gratitude as well as the party’s to
Nene Akiti II, Wetsoyi of Kudjragbe Division Council, for
donating the building to the party.
Mr Plahar said the centre was a one-stop office for
information mobilization and dissemination in the
constituency with facilities including computer and printer,
radio and television set and a selection of indoor games.
He appealed to the people to give him their support and also
vote for Nana Akufo-Addo.
