The National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, shook the Asutifi South Constituency in the Ahafo Region during his campaign tour of the region.

Chairman Stephen Ntim’s first place of call was the Dadiesoaba Nursing and Midwifery Training College in the Asutifi South District, where he interacted with trainee nurses.

He conveyed the NPP’s ‘bold solutions’ message, which resonated well with the students. In his remarks, he underscored the importance of the students voting massively for Dr. Bawumia and the NPP, given that the NPP government has restored the Nursing Training Allowance, which was abolished by the erstwhile Mahama administration.

He also noted that the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government is building two major hospitals in Kenyasi and Kukuom – both in the Ahafo Region. When completed in the next few months, these hospitals will employ the nursing students and other health professionals, addressing the issue of unemployment.

The Asutifi South NPP Parliamentary Candidate, Yaw Broni, on his part, donated a substantial amount of cash to the school authorities to purchase a brand new Public Address System based on a request.

He also promised to install air conditioners in their Assembly Hall and expand facilities in the college. It was a very fruitful engagement.

In a related development, Chairman Ntim, together with the District Chief Executive (DCE) for Asutifi South, the NPP Ahafo Regional Chairman, and Parliamentary Candidate Yaw Broni, also paid a courtesy call on the traditional authorities in Dadiesoaba before moving to the community center to address the teeming gathering in Dadiesoaba market.

The team also made a whistle-stop at Sienchem, a farming community in the Asutifi South District, and supported the chiefs and people with a fundraising event to build a community center.
