NDC Needs Your Votes - Opoku-Agyemang Tells Kumasi Electorate

The vice presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, has claimed that on the watch of President Akufo-Addo and Vice President Alhaji Bawumia, the country is unable to service its debt because it is broke.

She has therefore urged electorate in the Ashanti Region to vote for change in the upcoming December 7 general elections.

Addressing various professionals in the Nhyiaeso Constituency on Monday as part of her Ashanti Regional campaign tour, she said even though the region has consistently been rallying behind the New Patriotic Party (NPP), the people have been taken for granted because NPP governments do not reward them with commensurate development projects.

She added that in spite of a relatively low number of votes that the NDC gets in the region, NDC governments have honoured the people in the region with almost all its major development projects, including the Kejetia Market and a modern airport.

"Our country is not sitting pretty and it is everybody’s responsibility to ensure that we are tilting ourselves back. It will take a lot of efforts, it will take a lot of sacrifice; it is not business as usual," she said.

She said policies such as the 24-Hour Economy, the Big Push and the National Apprenticeship Programme will create jobs.
