The Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo-Markin has told all parliamentary candidates (PCs) of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and all the members of the party to go out and ‘fight’ for the party to ensure they win the presidential election and also more seats.
He says the current Akufo-Addo administration struggled in parliament because of the even numbers in the House..
This should not happen again, he said.
“Enough of the reconciliation, go out there and fight for the party,” the Effutu Lawmaker said during the launch of the 2024 manifesto on Sunday, August in Takoradi.
Afenyo-Markin further said that the running mate to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flagbearer, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh has the ability to help transform Ghana despite the effort by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to brand him as arrogant.
He recounted that the NDC did the same to President Akufo-Addo when he was a candidate but that did not work.
“We know you tagged Akufo-Addo also as arrogance but it didn’t work He is ready to transform Ghana with arrogance,” he said during the launch of the NPP manifesto on Sunday, August 18.
Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh will help Dr Bawumia to transform Ghana whether he is arrogant or not,” he added.
The Western Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr Francis Ndede Siah, has said that the 2024 manifesto document of the party contains measures to achieve progress and economic growth.
He said the launch in Takoradi goes down in history as the day the party laid the foundation to break the 8-year electoral cycle to secure the future of Ghana.
“The manifesto provides innovative ways to achieve progress,” he said in his welcoming address during the manifesto launch.
He added, “Today will go down in history as the day NPP laid the foundation to break the 8 to secure the future.”
For his part, Akim Abuakwa South Member of Parliament, Samuel Atta-Akyea has said. said that any idea and programme that addresses poverty in Ghana always emerge from the NPP.
He cited the free senior high school policy as an example of the programmes that are empowering the people of Ghana for the next twenty years.
Atta Akyea said that the 2024 manifesto document of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will catalog programmes and ideas that will lift the country out of the current challenges.
He says that the content of the NPP manifesto document shows that the future of Ghana rests with the flagbearer Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, not the opposition leader John Dramani Mahama.
Speaking to journalists in Takordi where the manifesto of the NPP is being launched on Sunday, August 18, Atta Akyea said “Anything of consequence that will bound rope poverty always comes from the NPP.
“So you are going to see another level of a serious issue and the blueprint that we will depend on so that we come out of our economic difficulties
“The free SHS came from the NPP and that is the paradigm shift in trying to empower the nation for even the next twenty years.
“So very critical ideas will evolve out of this manifesto but what is important is that after the manifesto launch, we should all see the future of this country is not with the recycle Mahama, but is with Dr Bawumia.”
