\n\t\t\t\tThe chiefs and religious leaders in the Afram Plains of the Eastern Region have expressed\u00a0 their resolve to change their voting pattern on 7th December 2024.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\tThis according to them is because the National Democratic Congress (NDC) which they have always voted for, has done very little to better their living conditions.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\tHowever, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has shown a strong commitment to meeting their developmental needs despite the unfavourable electoral outcomes they return to the party.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tThis commitment was made at a durbar of chiefs, religious leaders, representatives of identifiable groups and community leaders held in Donkorkrom, Afram Plains.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tThe event was to welcome the NPP Vice Presidential candidate, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh and his campaign entourage, on Wednesday, 9th October 2024.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tThe people recounted some of the social interventions and infrastructure projects undertaken by the NPP in Afram Plains, surpassing the NDC\u2019s record.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tThe community leaders who spoke at the durbar including Nana Akuamoa Boateng Tano ll, the chief of Atakora; Alhaji Fuseini Osman, Chief Imam of Donkorkrom, and Rev. Dr. Caleb Daribi, Chairman of the Local Council of Churches at Afram Plains, unanimously observed that despite voting massively for the NDC for the past 32 years, Afram Plains has seen very little progress from the NDC, and that, it is rather the NPP that has done a lot for them.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tThey expressed gratitude to the NPP and cited in particular, the digitization of public services, free SHS, NHIS, Agenda 111 hospital, electricity extension projects, ongoing road construction and the District Roads Improvement Programme (DRIP) machines that were delivered to the constituency to help improve the state of their roads.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tBased on this, they appealed to their people to, for the first time, vote massively for the NPP\u2019s Presidential candidate, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and the party\u2019s Parliamentary candidates for Afram Plains North and South Constituencies, Hon. Asiamah Anim and Hon. Jacob Zineyele respectively, to continue their good works.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tOn his part, Dr. Opoku Prempeh, the Vice Presidential candidate of the NPP, used the occasion to debunk the falsehood that was peddled by the NDC MP for Afram Plains North that it was her share of the common funds that was used to procure the DRIP machines for the constituency.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tHe refuted the claim emphatically and said even if the MP had used her entire common funds for 20 years, it would not be enough to buy a single DRIP machine.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tNapo, as he is popularly known, recounted that during his tenure as Energy Minister, he had extended electricity to 35 communities in the Afram Plains enclave among other infrastructure projects undertaken by the NPP government.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tHe pleaded with the people of Afram Plains to repose their confidence in the NPP when they go to the polls on December 7, because for 32 years of voting NDC, they have nothing to show.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\tNapo assured them that, the NPP would not let them down.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
