Gomoa Enyeme, (C/R), Nov. 11, GNA - Mr Joe Donkoh, Gomoa West Constituency Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has predicted a resounding victory for the party in the area during the December 7 polls.
He noted that the people of Gomoa West had received their fair share of development projects under the seven and a half years governance of President J.A. Kufuor. Mr Donkoh said some of the gains were free delivery for pregnant women, the school feeding programme, the National Health Insurance Scheme, Capitation Grant, rule of law and good governance. Mr Donkoh was speaking in an interview with the Ghana News Agency at Gomoa Enyeme during a fundraising harvest in aid of a library complex.
He said under a government of Nana Akufo-Addo, secondary education would be free to enable more parents to send their children to Senior High School.
He noted that the people would vote for the NPP in the December 7 elections based on the physical policies and programmes that had taken place in the constituency.
Mr Donkoh said with the discovery of oil, Ghana would see massive infrastructure development under a government of Nana Akufo-Addo. He said money that would be accrued from the oil drilling and sale would be properly managed "just like the way President Kufuor sent Ghana into HIPC and came out of it with prudent management". Mr Donkoh appealed to the electorate in Gomoa West to vote for Nana Akufo-Addo and Mr Joe Kingsley Hackman to continue the good work he started when he was elected as the Member of Parliament four years ago. Mr Hackman, who is the Gomoa West parliamentary candidate of the NPP said science and mathematics education would be his top priority if the people gave him the nod for the second time. He noted that health-care, water and road projects he had initiated had not been completed and urged the people to offer him a second chance to complete them.
