The vice-presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, has urged voters to choose experience over experimentation in the upcoming December 7 general elections.
She says former President John Dramani Mahama has the requisite experience to lead Ghana out of the mess created by the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia government.
Addressing market women at the Koforidua Central Market on Wednesday as part of her campaign tour of the Eastern Region, Prof. Opoku-Agyemang said Ghana is at a crossroads and it will take the experience and visionary leadership of Mr. Mahama to get the country out of its present challenges and drive the needed transformation.
She said the next NDC administration would provide support for market women and traders through the proposed Women’s Development Bank, adding that policies such as the National Apprenticeship Programme, the Big Push, and the 24-Hour Economy would also be introduced to provide jobs for the youth.
Prof. Opoku-Agyemang therefore urged the traders to vote for Mr. Mahama in the December 7 general elections.
She also urged the Electoral Commission to be fair and transparent in its dealings with all political parties before, during, and after the elections for peace to prevail.
