Drivers and market women should not be marginalised in governance – Dr Nduom

Breman Asikuma (C/R), GNA – Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom, Convention People’s Party (CPP) flag bearer said drivers and market women were the agents of transmitting information across the world and that they should not be marginalised in terms of governance of the country.


Dr Nduom said this when he interacted with the drivers of the Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) and the market women as part of his tour to introduce himself to the Asikuma-Odoben-Brakwa CPP Constituency executives of the party.


He said drivers carried passengers who possessed information about politics all over the world on their journeys therefore such organisations must be recognised and catered for.


Dr Nduom introduced Mrs Comfort Wilson Aggrey as the CPP candidate to contest Asikuma-Odoben-Brakwa parliamentary seat in December 2008.


The CPP flag bearer appealed to the people to vote massively for the party for better governance.


The other contestants for the Asikuma-Odoben-Brakwa parliamentary seat are the incumbent Member of Parliament Mr P.C. Appiah Ofori, New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mrs Georgina Nkromah Aboa, National Democratic Congress (NDC) and Mr Anthony Frempong, Independent Candidate.


Mr Jacob Quashie, Chairman of the GPRTU expressed appreciation to Dr Nduom for finding time to inform them of what the CPP intended to do for drivers and market women when his party came to power and assured him of the support of the members of union.
