The excitement was palpable among the traders, who expressed gratitude to the NPP for choosing Sekondi-Takoradi as the venue for the national manifesto launch.
The event not only generated enthusiasm but also provided a significant economic boost to the metropolis.
“Apart from the money we’re making here, almost all the hotels in the metropolis were booked due to this event,” one trader remarked.
“So, we are grateful to the NPP, and I believe the journey towards breaking the eight in the next general elections has begun.”
A visit to the event grounds revealed a sea of NPP colours and posters of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the party’s flagbearer and his running mate, as well as parliamentary candidates for the metropolis.
Aside from that Party activists were seen distributing NPP stickers and flyers about the launch to the attendees, further electrifying the atmosphere.
