President Nana Akufo-Addo
The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of the West Akyem
Municipal Assembly, Seth Oduro Boadu, has stated that the success chalked by
the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo administration within its first two years in
office, cannot be matched by any other government within the forth republic.
Listing some key achievements of the government such as the free
Senior High School (SHS), the Nation’s Builders Corp, the Planting for Food and
Jobs and some infrastructural achievement within his municipality – the MCE
challenged the opposition National
Democratic Congress (NDC) to provide, with verifiable facts, their
achievements within their first two years in office between 2009 and 2011.
Mr. Oduro-Boadu was speaking at the third anniversary launch
of the Lower West Akyem Constituency chapter of the NPP all ladies group, the Loyal
Ladies. He admonished the members of the group to help the party in trumpeting
the successes of the Akufo-Addo government. He charged the ladies to go all out
to visit various markets and villages to disseminate the success story of the
government.
On her part, the National President of the Loyal Ladies, Ms.
Adwoa Poomah Siaw assured the party of the unflinching support of members of
the group. She stated that, just as the group has done for the party for the
last three years, they would continue to cross rivers, climb mountains and do
their part to help the party maintain power in 2020.
She debunked allegations thrown out there that, members of
the group engaged in illicit relationships with big men for material gains. Ms.
Pomaa Siaw stated that, nobody goes about trumpeting her sexual life and so if
they wanted to engage in prostitution, there would not have been any reason to
come together to form a group. She said though the prostitution tag is
worrying, members of the group have taken that as part of the hazards
associated with politics and so they are unfazed, adding that the insults and
attacks will not deter them from working for the NPP and the Nana Akufo-Addo
government.
The group as part of the activities for the launch embarked
on a health walk through the principal streets of Asamankese and also organized
a free health screening for the people of the constituency.
Dr William Lamptey, co-Director of the STC Health Portal
Medical Clinic, who led a team of medical expert to organize the health screening,
advised the beneficiaries to refrain from self medication. He stated that self
medication only complicates the problems it is meant to solve and encouraged
them to see a medical professional, before taking any form of medication
whenever they feel any form of illness or pains in their bodies.
