In spite of concerns by some Ghanaians over the manner in which politics is conducted in the country, Member of Parliament for Ajumako-Enyan-Assiam, Mr Cassiel Ato Forson has said that there are still some decent personalities in Ghanaian politics today such as President Mills.
Mr. Forson said despite persistent comments that politicians are the most corrupt President Mills remains one of the few decent politicians the country has ever produced.
The MP stressed that there was no way President Mills could use GHC 90 million to campaign for his election for the flagbearership slot alone, at the expense of other challenging assignments in the country.
Speaking to Frimpong Manso Adakabre on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem on Thursday, Mr. Forson who is the youngest Parliamentarian noted that, the President is on course in his Better Ghana Agenda projects and is confident President Mills will get the nod to lead the NDC once more at the end of the July 8 – 10 Congress in Sunyani.
Responding to a question as to how President Mills is funding his campaign, Mr Forson who is the Central Regional Coordinator of Get Atta Mills Endorsed (GAME), disclosed that members of GAME have voluntarily decided to assist the President in cash or any other means.
Mr Ato Forson said the delegates have already accepted and voted for the President in advance by helping to fuel cars and providing shelter for the campaign team.
He said President Mills does not need GHC 90 million to lure delegates who have already endorsed him to continue his better Ghana agenda and hit out at those making such allegations saying they only want to tarnish the good image and reputation of the President.
He emphasized that the team is not using state funds to run the campaign but depend on little contributions made by donors and supporters.
