The Majority Chief Whip and Member of Parliament for the Nsawam-Adoagyiri constituency, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, has urged his constituents to reject the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the December elections, citing the opposition party's alleged lack of innovative solutions to the nation's challenges.
According to him, a return to power by former President John Mahama would likely result in a lack of urgency in governance.
The Majority Chief Whip made this statement on Sunday when he visited Adiyie, a community in his constituency that predominantly votes for the NDC, to perform a sod-cutting ceremony.
Frank Annoh-Dompreh, who has kickstarted his campaign by engaging with communities in his constituency, urges them to do their utmost to make the "breaking the 8" mantra a reality by voting for the flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, to become the next President of Ghana.
Addressing the chiefs and opinion leaders of the community, Annoh-Dompreh explained that the NPP flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, represents a more promising future for Ghana, adding that Dr. Bawumia's leadership offers a vision that aligns more closely with the country's needs.
"We have the NDC candidate who has had the opportunity to serve as vice president and president. He's been vice president for three and a half years and president for four and a half years. We know his track record. He is the same person with the same old team coming to tell us that they have something to offer, but we know their track record," he noted.
Annoh-Dompreh added that if Mr. John Mahama secures victory in the elections, his single-term presidency would likely diminish any sense of urgency in governance, as he would not be vying for re-election.
"He has only one term; there will be no sense of urgency, and we dare say that from day one, the government will be in crisis because those party members will be struggling for who should be the next leader. Ghanaians need a stable government with focus... Dr. Bawumia offers a better future than John Mahama," he added.
The Nsawam-Adoagyiri MP further noted that the policies and programs implemented by the NPP government since its assumption of office in 2017 are further proof that the ruling government has a clear understanding of how to put the country on the path of progress and prosperity.
Frank Annoh-Dompreh, in his message, urged the constituents to work hard to make Dr. Bawumia the next President of Ghana, since the flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has nothing to offer Ghanaians anymore after holding all the political positions in the country.
The Majority Chief Whip, Annoh-Dompreh, is optimistic that Nsawam/Adoagyiri will lead the way for the NPP's victory in the next general election.
However, he appealed to the community members to rally their support behind the ruling party by changing their voting pattern in the upcoming general election to enable the NPP to win the 2024 polls and transform the constituency and the country as a whole with developmental projects.
