Koforidua (Eastern Region) 26 May '99

National Democratic Congress (NDC) activists in the Koforidua and New Juabeng North constituencies have commended the government for successfully hosting the just-ended African-African American Summit, describing it as "a feat that is going to boost the image of Ghana once again in international circles."

The commendation was contained in a six-point resolution passed at the end of a day's seminar of the regional secretariat of the party organised for the activists from the two constituencies at Koforidua at the weekend.

The resolution reaffirmed the support of the activists to the NDC government for the "able manner it has been handling the investment policy which is transforming the country and raising the standard of living of the average Ghanaian."

It also praised the government for "the competent and efficient manner it had so far handled the Free Compulsory Universal Basic Education (FCUBE) and the 'Health for all by the year 2000' programmes".

The New Juaben North Constituency chairman of the NDC, Barima Yaw Safo-Kantanka, read the resolution and called on beneficiaries of the poverty alleviation interventions, including the Youth in Agriculture and the Village Infrastructure Programmes to "faithfully honour the terms of the policies".
