The Eastern Regional Youth wing of the governing New Patriotic Party NPP has pledged to secure at least 1 million votes and over for President Akufo-Addo as he seeks another term in office.
According to the youth, President Akufo-Addo in his first term has performed extraordinarily to exceed expectations of the youth in the country.
Addressing the media at the Youth Must Know series the Eastern Regional Youth Organizer of the NPP, Jerry Osei-Poku, said the youth will leave no stone unturned to secure 1 million votes for President Akufo-Addo.
“The youth of the ruling New Patriotic Party in the Eastern Region has vowed to give President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, at least, one million votes of the total valid votes cast in the region in the imminent 2020 Elections and also work diligently to secure 30 out of the 33 parliamentary seats in the region for the party. On behalf of the youth in the Eastern Region, I pledged that, in the upcoming 2020 elections, we will continue to labor diligently to secure, at least, 1 million votes for President Akufo-Addo and 30 out of the 33 Parliamentary seats in the region for the NPP.”
“President Akufo-Addo has fulfilled key 2016 Manifesto promises that have far-reaching positive impact on the lives of the majority of Ghanaians. To protect the significant progress we have witnessed in all sectors of the economy, especially education, and to consolidate the gains made, its imperative that the Ghanaian youth campaign vigorously for President Akufo-Addo and vote to give him four more years to do more for Ghanaians”.
Mr. Osei-Poku who called on the youth to be ready and alert at all times advised them not to fall for promises from the opposition.
“To my fellow youth, I plead with you all not to let your guards down and allow yourselves to be deceived by the lofty and whimsical promises of the incompetent, corrupt and unreliable NDC party. When Mr Mahama was President, he turned a blind eye to the plights of Ghanaians and gave no listening ears to the wailing of teachers and students, even though he knew that he will campaign for our votes once more”.
