The vice presidential candidates for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Opuku Prempeh (NAPO) , has urged Ashanti’s to vote massively for the NPP in the upcoming elections on December 7 if they want developmental projects in the region.
According to him, the NPP prioritizes the development of the Ashanti Region and also has their best interest at heart than the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
Dr. Prempeh made this assertion during a rally in Tweapeasi, within the Odotobiri Constituency.
“We vote in elections for development,” Dr. Prempeh explained. “If you cast your vote for a political party that does not prioritize your progress, then you have wasted that vote. The NDC is not committed to the proper development of the Ashanti Region,”
He added that, the NDC in recent times receiving significant votes from the Ashanti Region in past elections, the NDC consistently neglects the region’s needs whenever they are in power.
“The number of votes that the NDC obtains from the Ashanti Region during elections is very huge, yet the NDC still consider Ashanti as a region that doesn’t support them.
“The progress of the country, notably the Ashanti Region, always comes to a standstill whenever the NDC occupies the seat of government and I think it’s deliberate”, he stated.
