Give me 4 more years to do more for you – Akufo-Addo to newly created Ahafo Region

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has asked residents of the newly created Ahafo Region to renew his mandate so his government can consolidate the gains chalked since his assumption of office.

Rounding up his two-day tour of the Region on Sunday with visits to Hwidiem, Goaso, Dadiesoaba, Mim, Akrodie, Kukuom and Sankore, the President noted that Ghanaians have had an opportunity to witness at first hand the impact of the policies and programmes implemented by his Government.

“If you believe that the policies of my government have had a positive impact on your lives, and you have not regretted voting for me, I will urge you to continue to have faith in me. In the December elections, let it be four more years for Nana to do more for you,” he said.

He also urged residents to vote for NPP parliamentary candidates, so as to deliver another decisive victory for the Ghanaians.

“Come and join me on the ‘elephant. The ‘umbrella’ has nothing too good to offer the people of Ghana, as their record in office shows,” he stressed. 

Touching on the spate of electoral violence that has characterized some parts of the Ahafo Region, President Akufo-Addo assured residents of the Ahafo Region, particularly in Asutifi South and Asunafo South that the days of violence in their elections are over.

“For this year’s election, I want everyone to understand that, so long as I am President, irrespective of your party affiliation, anyone who wants to perpetuate violence will have to deal with the laws of our land.

That person will not go scot-free this time around, particularly in Asutifi South and Asunafo South. We do not want such acts of lawlessness in Ghana”. He added.

President Akufo-Addo also inspected ongoing projects at Hwidiem SHS, and commissioned a business resource centre at Goaso.

At Dadiesoaba, the President commissioned a newly constructed maternity ward at the Dadiesoaba Health Centre and paid a courtesy call on the Omanhene of Goaso, and inspected ongoing construction works at Akrodie Senior High School.

Ghana is endowed with gold and oil palms and situated between the trans-Saharan trade routes and the African coastline visited by successive European traders, the area known today as Ghana has been involved in all phases of Africa's economic development during the last forty five years.  In 1981 a military government under the leadership of Flight Lieutenant Jerry John Rawlings came to power. Calling itself the Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC), the Rawlings regime initially blamed the nation's economic problems on the corruption of previous governments.
