Nana Akufo-Addo managed to introduce an unprecedented mind boggling policy direction that will leave an indelible mark in the minds of Ghanaians by implementing the Free SHS policy within just seven months\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019This same NDC people including Mahama and Asiedu Nketiah categorically stated that there was no way Nana Addo and his NPP government were going to make the Free SHS Policy possible but what are we seeing now, hasn\u2019t Akufo-Addo made justice to what he kept telling Ghanaians for many years\u2019\u2019 he quizzed.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019Nana Addo told them that I haven\u2019t come to steal the country\u2019s money rather I have come to use the resources in the country to finance the project to better the lives of Ghanaians and to also make education accessible to every Ghanaian child. He kept saying this continuously and truly tells you he was a leader in the making\u2019\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Owusu Bempah is however optimistic that President Akufi-Addo would be ranked among the greatest politicians Ghana has ever produced.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019 You can mark it on the wall by the time Nana Addo tenure expires he would be one of the greatest leaders the country has ever produced I tell you Kwame\u2019\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019Now Nana has introduced the planting for food and jobs project and has also paid the numerous arrears the NDC left while in office.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 32 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Tuesday, 6 February 2018 Source: abusuafmonline.com 2018-02-06 Former President John Dramani Mahama Communications director of the Ghana Gas Company Limited, Owusu Bempah has stated emphatically that he will relinquish his position should Mr. John Dramani Mahama amass 30% in the 2020 Presidential election.
