CPP would live up to expectation - Dr Nduom
Essikado (W/R), Sept. 26, Ghanadot/GNA - The Convention
People's Party (CPP) would live up to expectation to make
the country an enviable place to live in, if given the nod
by the electorate in the upcoming elections, Dr Paa Kwesi
Nduom, the Party's presidential candidate said on Friday.
Speaking at a forum at Essikado, near Sekondi, to begin a
campaign tour of the Western Region, he said the CPP would
not disappoint the people as the National Democratic
Congress (NDC) and the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) have
done.
CPP, he said, was determined to win political power once
again and appealed to the electorate to vote for the Party
to enable it to prove its competence in the management of
the country's affairs.
Dr Nduom said Essikado was the cradle of the CPP and,
therefore, expected the people of the Western Region and
Essikado in particular, to vote massively for the Party.
"The people of the Western Region and for that matter
Essikado, has the responsibility to give their full support
for the CPP because of the special historical bond between
them," he said.
He said the CPP had a strategic plan for the expansion and
development of the Takoradi Harbour and the railway
transportation system that would provide jobs for the people
adding that in order to make this a reality; the people must
give their mandate to the Party in the December Elections.
A government of the CPP would also establish a petrochemical
industry in the Region to enhance job opportunities for the
youth.
The CPP Flag Bearer also said the Party had an edge over the
other political parties because it understood the country's
challenges better and abhorred violence as a campaign
strategy.
Dr Nduom promised to discourage pair trawling if the CPP won
the elections to boost the operations of local fishermen.
Mr Mike Eghan, National Treasurer of the Party, said the
electorate must give their mandate to the CPP, since the NPP
and the NDC had disappointed them woefully.
Dr Nduom introduced Mr John Eghan, the Party's Parliamentary
Candidate for Essikado-Kettan Constituency to the people and
urged them to vote for him.
