NPP campaign bases on truth and not propaganda
Tongor-Dzemeni, Sept 26, Ghanadot/GNA - Mrs Agnes Okudzeto,
First Vice-Chairperson of the New Patriotic Party (NPP),
said on Friday that the party’s campaign guiding principle
was the graphic presentation of achievements of the party
for assessment by the people.
She said that explains why the executive structure of the
party at all levels had no position for a propaganda
officer.
Mrs Okudzeto was addressing a durbar of mainly women party
activists in the South–Dayi constituency at Tongor-Dzemeni
on Friday.
Mrs Okudzeto, who accompanied Mrs Rebecca Akufo Addo, wife
of NPP flag bearer on a two-day tour of the Volta Region,
said propaganda, which entailed craftily using lies and half
truths to win sympathy of people, was not part of the NPP
style.
She said NPP performance was inviolable and could not be
erased by messages and images of lies by other parties.
Mr Kofi Dzamesi, Volta Regional Minister, who was on the
trip said projects the NPP government brought to the Dzemeni
had established a bond between the party and the people
there, which could not be broken by dishonest
representations by other parties or individuals.
Mrs Akufo-Addo who commenced her tour at Juapong with a
meeting with market women continued to Nkwanta and Kpassa in
the northern part of the region.
Her programme hit a snag when on her return from Kpassa, the
entire retinue including some wives of defeated aspirants to
the NPP presidential candidature, Mr Dzamesi, party
activists and hangers-on were held up for about two hours
behind an articulated truck carrying scrap and a bus, stuck
deep in mud on a partially completed culvert.
Mrs Akufo-Addo had told a rally at Kpassa that the roads in
the area would be of paramount concern for her husband when
he was elected president.
At all her stops, including Kadjebi she extolled the NPP
policies of National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), School
Feeding Programme, Capitation Grant, infrastructure
build-up.
The trip which should have continued to Ho and Dzodze was
called off due to the death of the Mr Kwadwo Baah-Wiredu,
Finance and Economic Planning Minister.
