Only The CPP Can Now Stop NPP

With the campaign all but over, Ghana is set for the elections on tuesday 7th December, and it is worth recounting the messages coming across in this election.

That it is not about glossy adverts or expensive electronic billboards, but about who can meet the basic needs and aspirations of the people of Ghana.

That Children who complete JSS/SSS education today have no jobs to go to.

That the majority of people do not have a square meal a day.

That people cannot afford to pay for a cure when they fall ill.

That new housing today is beyond the reach of the majority.

That school fees have increased, many cannot afford it and drop-out rates are up

That poverty levels have increased in the last 4 years of the NPP government.

That the scent of corruption and disappointment in the NPP government is there for all to see.
