2 mins readFormer President John Mahama has urged Ghanaians to decisively vote against the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming presidential and parliamentary elections next month.
During a rally in the Tamale Central Constituency as part of his campaign tour of the Northern Region, the NDC Flagbearer emphasized that the December election represents a critical choice for all Ghanaians, framing it as a contest not just between the NDC and NPP, but between the people of Ghana and the NPP government.“When we look at the results, in Tamale Central we got 60.8%.
This year, we have to raise that percentage to above 75 to 80 percent because this election is between the whole of Ghana and the NPP; it’s not between NDC and NPP,” he said.Mr. Mahama addressed a rally in the Tamale Central Constituency during the second phase of his campaign tour of the Northern Region on Saturday, where he criticized the government led by Nana Akufo-Addo and Dr.
Bawumia for the significant hardships faced by Ghanaians, stating that life has become unbearable under their leadership.He further asserted that the conditions in Ghana were more favorable during his administration.“The country that I handed over to Nana Akufo-Addo and Bawumia on 7th January 2017, that is not the same Ghana we’re living in.
I can beat my chest and say that our lives were far better under the NDC administration than they are today. Today everybody is going through hardship,” he noted.“They came with very sweet words and convinced Ghanaians that they were going to be a better government. Today, everything has gone backwards; the quality of our education is a problem, the quality of healthcare is a problem.
Today, if you don’t have money, you’ll die because if you go to the hospital without money, you’ll die,” he added.Former President John Mahama concluded his Northern Regional tour on Saturday, where he visited several constituencies, including Tolon, Sagnarigu, Nanton, Tamale North, Tamale Central, and Tamale South.
During his visit, the NDC Flagbearer committed to initiating significant projects, such as the completion of the Tamale Water Expansion Project and the construction of a bridge over the White Volta River at Daboya, which will connect the Tolon District to the Savannah Region, among other initiatives.
