THERE IS HOPE FOR
GHANA, AKUFO-ADDO ASSURES GHANAIANS, NPP
Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has assured Ghanaians of
better times ahead for the nation when he and the
New Patriotic Party are voted into office in the
2016 presidential election.
According to Nana Akufo-Addo, "we need people who
will work for Ghana to succeed. It is only the NPP
who can bring prosperity, employment for the youth
and progress for all. We have the men and women who
can give this nation good and effective government."
He made this known when he addressed delegates of
the NPP in the Eastern Region, upon resumption of
his campaign to win the nomination of the party
ahead of the 2016 elections.
The Better Ghana mantra agenda of the ruling NDC,
according to Nana Addo, has collapsed as the only
thing Ghanaians are witnessing is bad governance
which has brought in its wake hardships and poverty.
"Businesses are collapsing, our educational system
is in disarray. When someone is sick, it becomes a
heart-wrenching issue, because our healthcare system
is in a mess. This is not the Ghana we all know," he
stated.
A government, under his leadership, Nana Addo
explained will ensure the rapid industrialisation of
the Ghanaian economy and move this nation from a
producer and exporter of raw materials, to an
economy that will add value to the country's raw
materials. This, he said, is the sure way of
creating the hundreds of thousands of jobs needed
for the growing masses of unemployed youth.
"I did not get into politics to enrich myself.
That's not why I am in politics. That is not the
reason I am seeking office. I am seeking office to
serve the people of Ghana," he added.
He asked the delegates to entrust the mandate of the
party into his hands as he is the only person
capable of delivering victory for the NPP in 2016.
Nana Akufo-Addo assured delegates that as per the
verdict of the Supreme Court in the presidential
election petition, the 2016 election will be won
through vigilance and effort at the polling station.
"We are taking the fight to the polling stations.
Our strength and focus will be at the polling
station. Everything we are going to do will be at
the polling station. It is the only way we can win
the election and deliver prosperity to all
Ghanaians," he said.
He asked the Eastern Region, which delivered a 91%
winning margin for him in the August 2010
presidential primary, to replicate and even improve
on this feat in the October 18 presidential primary.
