Odumase-Krobo(ER), April 24, GNA - Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, Presidential Candidate of New Patriotic Party (NPP) has observed that it was only the NPP that had good policies and programmes for the country.

He said there was still much to be done to transform Ghana into a country with first class public service and the most efficient public schools to enable her lead the way in Africa's development.
