Accra, Nov 8, GNA -The First Lady, Mrs Rebecca Akufo-Addo, has called on electorates in the Abokobi and Amasaman areas to vote for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the December polls to ensure a massive win for the Party.
She said by voting for Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the NPP Flagbearer, and the parliamentary candidates in those areas, the electorates would ensure that Ghana gets development-oriented leaders to continue the good works of the NPP.
Mrs Akufo-Addo particularly appealed to the Abokobi electorates to change their voting pattern and vote massively for the NPP.
She explained that a vote for Dr Bawumia, and parliamentary candidate, Michael Aaron Oquaye Jnr, would ensure the total development of the Abokobi area and the country as a whole.
The first lady said this when she interacted with market women, female artisans, the aged, widows, persons living with disability (PWDs), and drivers, among others at Abokobi as part of her campaign activities in support of the NPP flagbearer, Dr Bawumia’s campaign.
She said the electorates should make a deliberate attempt to go to the polls on December 7 and vote only for the NPP.
According to her, Dr. Bawumia is a brilliant young man who is full of ideas and vision, and a vote for him would ensure that the good work of the party was continued across the country.
She said Dr Bawumia holds the blueprint to free SHS, school feeding, and NHIS, among other social intervention programmes, all enrolled by the NPP, and therefore, a vote for him would bring about sustenance.
Mrs Akufo-Addo said it was only the NPP that could deliver the country and steer it into a prosperous nation, and so all Ghanaians who are eligible voters should vote for the party.
She promised to lobby for a creche for Abokobi if they deliver a win for the NPP both in the presidential and parliamentary elections.
Mr Oquaye Jnr on his part, pledged to bring development to Abokobi and its environs if they voted for him and Dr Bawumia come December 7.
He said, he would also facilitate the upgrade of their health centre into a polyclinic, build a nurses and doctors quarters attached to the clinic, complete work on the Abokobi SHS, complete an ongoing information centre and a borehole for the community.
Mr Oquaye called on the electorates to spread the good works of the NPP for all to see so that they would vote for the party.
Earlier the First Lady and his entourage, paid a courtesy call on the Chief of Abokobi, Nii Abokobi, Samuel Nii Adjetey Mohenu at his Palace, where she thanked the chief and his elders for the faith they have in the NPP party.
Nii Abokobi called on the party to pray continuously for success to come to the party.
According to him, Abokobi was a Christian community that believed in the work of prayers and therefore, called on the NPP to adopt prayer as part of its winning strategy.
Nii Papao, the President of the Ga East Chiefs Association, in a remark, commended the NPP for the good work it had done across the country, especially in the areas of education and health.
In a related development, Mrs Akufo-Addo also went to the Amasaman constituency and interacted with PWDs, market women, hairdressers, seamstresses, and bakers, and rallied them to throw their weight behind the NPP so that its good policies like the free SHS, and Agenda 111 and others could be continued.
Mr Yahya Kassim Atta, NPP Parliamentary candidate for Amasaman, promised to continue with the development projects being undertaken in the constituency, if voted as the MP for the area.
