Accra, Jan. 28, GNA – President Nana Addo
Dankwa Akufo-Addo Monday picked nominations forms to contest the New Patriotic
Party’s (NPP) presidential primaries on April 25, 2020.
The President, so far, is the only known
personality to have formally declared to contest for the Presidency on the
ticket of the NPP.
Mr Victor Newman, Director of Research at
the Presidency, went for the forms on the President’s behalf at the Party’s
headquarters in Accra.
President Akufo-Addo has stated severally
that the programmes, policies and many economic and social interventions being
implemented by his administration had resulted in a solid foundation for the
growth and development of Ghana.
However, to sustain that sound economic
footing, the President said Ghanaians ought to renew his government’s mandate
to guide the country to the desired end state, a Ghana Beyond Aid.
“It is important that all the strong
work that is going into reconstructing our economy and laying the foundation
for agriculture and for industry and for our education and health system is
maintained,” the President said recently at a durbar in Accra.
