The NPP, he told <strong><em>DAILY GUIDE, <\/em><\/strong>was the only party under whose tenure Muslims could be assured their fair share of the national cake.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are grateful to President Nana Akufo-Addo and his Vice, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, for the special love they have exhibited towards the Moslem Umma and wish to assure them that we will retain the government come 2020,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn fact, we the Nasara wing will also work hard to explain\u00a0government policies to our people to ensure that NPP gains more votes in the Zongos,\u201d added.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, Zongo indigenes were encouraged to believe that they were affiliates of the NDC, he said, adding, however, that now that \u201cour people know better, the 98 per cent votes the NDC used to get from these segments of the country will no longer be forthcoming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>From Emmanuel Opoku, Takoradi<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alhaji Labib Imam Ali The re-introduction of stipends for Arabic teachers by President Akufo-Addo, which the National Democratic Congress (NDC) cancelled during its tenure, is turning the political tide in favour of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) among Muslims, especially in the Western Region.
