Nii Laryea Afotey-Agbo launches campaign

Nii Laryea Afotey-Agbo, Greater Accra Regional Minister, launched his campaign for re-election as the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament for Kpone Katamanso over the weekend.

He said victory of the party depended on the supporter’s ability to promote the ideas of the party to convince people to vote for the party to continue the better Ghana Agenda.

Mr. Afotey-Agbo stated that the enviable track record of the NDC was enough evidence for the public to know the vast difference that existed between the party and the New Patriotic Party.

According to him, the development projects that the party had brought to the area since coming into office would be continued when the party comes into power, urging people not to vote based on mere promises but on track record of the party.

He announced that the people living in the area would begin to have access to regular supply of water for their daily activities.

Mr. Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, Minister of Local Government and Rural Development, noted that the NDC did not have any track record of discrimination, but rather gave equal opportunities to everyone irrespective of their ethnic origin or religious affiliation.

This, he said should send a message to the electorate about what the party stands for and its ability to deliver on its promise.
