Catherine Abelema Afeku, New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary Candidate (PC) for Evalue-Ajomoro-Gwira in the Western Region has said the governing NPP are better managers of the Ghanaian economy than the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
“The NDC cannot be better managers of the economy. The data clearly shows that the NPP administration does better when it comes to the introduction of policies and programmes geared towards improving the people’s living standard”
She has therefore appealed to her constituents to vote for her and the flagbearer of the NPP, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia in the next general elections for the NPP to continue the good works it started in the constituency.
The former tourism minister spoke in an interview on Sunday after attending a thanksgiving service at the St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church in Axim.
“We are here to thank God after my election as the Parliamentary candidate on December 9, last year and also pray for strength and divine protection throughout my campaign to recapture the seat for NPP”, she noted.
She was accompanied by her husband, children, NPP members, patrons, executives, polling station coordinators, party faithful, friends, and family members.
The occasion was a joyous one as a special prayer was said for Afeku and her supporters for their victory during the parliamentary primary in the orphan constituency and the ultimate victory in the December 7, 2024, Parliamentary and Presidential elections.
She thanked the congregation for their prayers, support, and counsel every step of the way.
She assured the gathering that, with their support, she will clinch the ultimate victory on December 7, 2024, to honour her promise of continuing with the government’s good works in the area
She described the performance of the current NDC MP in the constituency as retrogressive and abysmal.
“So I am confident in leading the NPP in the constituency, to snatch the seat. I have all the qualities needed to help bring back development to the Nzema constituency”.
She said it was the NPP that had honoured Paa Grant, a Gold Coast merchant who hailed from Axim, for his immense role in the struggle for Ghana’s independence and his significant contribution to the nation’s development in diverse ways.
“I believe that the people will also honour the party by voting massively for the NPP on December 7”, he emphasized.
Rev Fr Appiah Kubi Amponsah, Parish Priest of the Catholic appealed to politicians to live by example, remain committed to developing their areas and conduct clean campaigns devoid of insults and name-calling.
