Eastern Regional Minister appeals to Ghanaians to renew mandate for NDC

Kpong (E/R), Oct. 22, GNA - Mr Victor Smith, Eastern Regional Minister, has appealed to Ghanaians to vote massively for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) as its leader has a track record of bringing development.       He said Ghanaians should vote for a leader who was credible and had a good track record to move the nation forward.       Mr Smith was addressing hundreds of supporters of the party at a rally at Kpong in the Eastern Region to launch the Lower Manya Constituency Campaign.      He said the New Patriotic Party (NPP) flag bearer, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo, had no track record of any developmental project when he was the Member of Parliament (MP) for three terms at Abuakwa South.      Mr Smith said Nana Addo, was also a Minister of State for two terms but could not do anything significant to raise the living conditions of the people from his area.     He said the only project Nana Addo undertook in his community was a post office but later abandoned it.     Mr Smith urged the electorate to renew the NDC mandate and also vote massively for Mr Ebenezer Okletey Terlabi, the party’s parliamentary candidate, to continue with the “Better Ghana Agenda” and bring development to their doorsteps.      Mr Terlabi urged the electorate to give him the mandate to represent them in Parliament to lobby for more development for the area.      He told the crowd that they would continue to see much improvement in their living conditions if they gave him the nod.      Mr Terlabi said the incumbent MP, Mr Michael Teye Nyaunu, did not bring any development and improvement in the lives of the people.      He said Mr Nyaunu took the people for granted and did not fight to bring them their fair share of the national cake.      Mr Terlabi  said he was confident of winning the seat and that he would win “one touch’.      He appealed to the electorate to come out in their numbers on December 7 and vote massively for him and President John Mahama.      He advised the party supporters to guard against any form of violence that could disturb the peace of the country.     GNA  ...
