Stop Lying About our DCE. NDC Youth

Youth of the ruling National Democratic Congress in the Wa East Constituency of the Upper West Region have descended on some constituency executives for embarking on strenuous campaigns to dent the image of the District Chief Executive (DCE) for the area Abdul-Karim Abudu.

He has therefore warned that the youth would not sit aloof and allow them pursue their clandestine agenda which is meant to satisfy their personal interest to the disadvantage of all residents.
Musah Osaman discounted allegations of impropriety and allegiance to the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) leveled against Mr. Abudul-Karimu Abudu the DCE and challenged those making the claims to substantiate them or forever remain mute.

"We will never allow persons seeking the welfare of their stomachs to ruin the good things coming to the district" The youth noted.
