\n
The First Lady, Mrs Rebecca Akufo-Addo, has expressed her grat\u00aditude to Ghanaians for their immense support towards the New Patriotic Party (NPP), and called for reten\u00adtion of the party in power in the December 7 elections.<\/p>\n
With barely a week to the polls, the First lady urged the elector\u00adate to vote for Dr Mahamadu Bawumia, NPP presidential can\u00addidate for election 2024, since he is the only one who can continue with the good works of the current president, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.<\/p>\n
She made the call when she visited the Odododiodioo and Ledzokuku constituencies on Monday, as part of her thank you tour of the Greater Accra Region.<\/p>\n
Thanking the citizenry for the confidence reposed in the NPP over the years, she reminded the electorate that the NPP was the only party that had the interest of the ordinary Ghanaian at heart and ought to be kept in office.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have done a lot of good works for the country, hence, the vital need for the party\u2019s retention in power. Don\u2019t let any political party lure you that a change in government is needed because the NPP has achieved and done many policies as it promised to do,\u201d Mrs Akufo-Addo stated.<\/p>\n
She mentioned policies, includ\u00ading the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), Free Senior High School (SHS), which have benefit\u00adted all Ghanaians.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe NPP has accomplished a lot of developmental projects in the country and Ghanaians can testify to it so, come December 7, let these guide you to vote for Dr Bawumia to continue the good works,\u201d she urged electorates.<\/p>\n
The NPP parliamentary candi\u00addate for Ledzokuku Constituency, Dr Bernard Okoe-Boye, expressed his heartfelt gratitude to his con\u00adstituents for their overwhelming support over the past years.<\/p>\n
He assured them that their trust and loyalty would not go unre\u00adwarded as he remains committed to serving their best interests.<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone that has supported the party over the past few years would soon live to be a testament of the great works the party would bring to this nation,\u201d Dr Okoe- Boye who is also minister of health, said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf your child completes Senior High School and qualifies for nursing or tertiary education, and the NPP comes into power, we will provide the necessary support for them to pursue their higher education dreams, as long as you\u2019re a registered voter in Teshie,\u201d he promised.<\/p>\n
Dr Okoe-Boye also announced plans to establish a two- billion welfare fund, designed to provide financial support for individuals in times of need or crisis.<\/p>\n
The NPP parliamentary candi\u00addate for Odododiodioo constitu\u00adency, Mr Abdul Mannaf Sowah, emphasised the importance of unity, urging everyone in the con\u00adstituency to spread the message to friends and neighbours to vote for Dr Bawumia.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe one who climbs the good tree is the one we support and uplift. Let\u2019s rally behind the NPP and work together to continue our good work.<\/p>\n
We have a long way to go and the only person that can take us to the promise land is Dr Bawumia and I,\u201d Mr Sowah, indicated.<\/p>\n
