The 2016 flagbearer of the National Democratic Party (NDP), Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings, has once again taken a swipe at the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) for plunging the nation into an untold hardship.

Mrs. Rawlings said the situation has made life very unbearable for Ghanaians.

According to her, many Ghanaians, especially the youth are bearing the brunt of the NDC government’s ‘incompetent’ management of Ghana, saying the Mahama-led administration is bereft of cogent policies and programmes to impact positively on the lives of the teeming Ghanaian youth.

“More than 60 percent of this country’s population are youth, but why is it that, majority of the population is suffering? Parents are suffering, we adults are also suffering and anybody who will tell you that, they are comfortable; they are part of the stealing,” the former first lady stated.

Addressing a rally at Ziope to outdoor the party’s parliamentary nominee for the Agortime-Ziope constituency in the Volta region, Dr. David Sunu, Mrs. Rawlings said Ghanaians have had enough of the NDC’s ‘destruction’ of the country and called on the electorate to show them the exit in the upcoming December 7 polls.

“We have to correct things that is why it is important that we tell them [NDC] that, you’ve destroyed our lives enough, so they leave for somebody else to [take charge]. If you (government) cannot have a programme for 60 percent of your population, please get out of this country, we don’t want to see you. There is no compromise on this, because if we compromise on it, we are in trouble.”

Dr. Sunu, the NDP’s parliamentary candidate urged the electorate of Agortime-Ziope to break the status quo and vote him into parliament for real development and progress of the area.

According to him, he is competent enough to serve the people as an MP and appealed to them to look beyond party colours and cause the needed change. “Of what use is a party when it cannot change our lives, because political parties are supposed to serve us and it is not there for us to worship them.”

The NDP flagbearer earlier paid a courtesy call on some traditional leaders in the constituency to formally introduce the parliamentary nominee to them.
