NPP to make inroads
in three Northern Regions – Nana Akufo-Addo
Kumasi, July 29, Ghanadot/GNA – Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo,
flagbearer of New Patriotic Party (NPP), on Sunday said the
Party was poised to make inroads in the three Northern
Regions during Election 2008.
He noted that NPP Government had in the last eight years
committed more resources to improve socio-economic
developments to benefit the people.
“I was shocked at the enthusiasm of most northerners to see
the NPP retain power in the elections during my three-week
tour of the Regions recently,” he said.
Nana Akufo-Addo was addressing an enthusiastic crowd at a
Gospel Musical Show organised to commemorate the 16th
anniversary celebration of NPP at Jubilee Park in Kumasi.
Among the artistes who participated in the seven-hour event
were, Kwaku Gyasi, Pastor Joe Beecham, Pastor Danny Nettey,
Philipa Baafi and Grace Ashie.
The rest were, Pastor Josh Laryea, Christiana Love, Noble
Nketia, Fred Oware Junior, Ohemaa Mercy, Soul Winners and No
Tribe.
Nana Akufo-Addo appealed to the electorate from the three
Northern Regions to endeavour to vote massively for NPP to
continue with its good works in the area.
He said the Party had instituted the necessary measures to
ensure a landslide victory in Election 2008, adding “We are
aiming at a one touch victory” and called on activists and
functionaries of the Party to step up campaigns at the
grassroots for victory.
Nana Akufo-Addo pledged government’s commitment to ensure
the elections were conducted in a free and fair environment
to consolidate Ghana’s infant democracy.
He urged supporters of the Party who had not registered to
endeavour to register when the voters register was opened on
Thursday, July 31.
Mr Isaac Osei, NPP Parliamentary Aspirant for Subin, called
for unity among the Party’s hierarchy for peace to prevail.
