Claims that “all Voltarians” belong to the
National Democratic Congress (NDC) is factually inaccurate, a senior divisional
chief of the Peki Traditional area, Togbe Agamela VI has said.According
to the chief, some members of the traditional council belong to other parties
including the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Addressing the presidential
candidate of the NPP, Nana Akufo-Addo, during his tour of the Volta Region,
Togbe Agamela VI, said some of them are sympathizers of the NPP and declared his
support for Nana Addo.
Expressing his gratitude to the chief, Akufo-Addo
said the NPP’s call for change was based on the fact that the performance of the
NDC government in the last eight years has been nothing but a monumental
failure.
He accused President John Mahama of supervising unbridled
corruption and collapsing all the social intervention programmes initiated by
the erstwhile John Agyekum Kufuor administration.
“He [Mahama] has been
in power for eight years, and in the era of the eight years apart from the Green
Book, we don’t really know what else he is really able to do,” Akufo-Addo told
the chief and his subjects.
“The time, has come for us to put people in
office who are cable of ruling this country and leading effective and efficient
government so that we can make progress in our country,” he added.
He
reiterated his pledge to ensure rapid development of the country when voted for
come December 7, urging the people to ditch the governing NDC
government. |
