The Minister of Tourism and Modernisation of the Capital City, Jake Obetsebi Lamptey says if bribing the electorate is the only means available to ensuring developments, then the NPP government will continue to use that means to remain in power.
''We will continue to bribe the people by continuing to supply them with their needs because that is why we are in power'', he told critics who were alleging that government was exploiting incumbency to its advantage.
The Minister, who is also the Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the NPP was addressing members of the Okai-Koi North Constituency of the party at a day’s forum in Accra. He said the NPP government has within two years proved itself of having the capacity and ability to administer the country.
''Do not let anybody make you feel that we are not performing well because the NPP government has done more in two years than what the previous government did in 20 years''.
He urged supporters of the NPP to exert pressure on government to undertake more development projects.
