The flagbearer of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), Nana Akosua Frimpomaa has called on Ghanaians to reject the thirty-two (32) year misrule of both the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the forthcoming December 2024 polls.
According to her, all Ghanaians including the youth and women of the country are tired of the current political duopoly of the country. Nana Frimpomaa was addressing a section of the chiefs of the Mepe Traditional Area at Mepe in the North Tongu District as part of her campaign tour of the Volta Region.
The two-day campaign tour of Nana Akosua Frimpomaa took her to Kpando and Gbefi in the Kpando Municipality, the regional capital of Ho as well as Mepe in the North Tongu District where she interacted with party supporters and faithful, market women as well as a cross-section of the citizens of the region to canvass votes for the CPP in the December elections.
She used her visit to the Volta Region to share her Ghanaba Shares concept with the people in addition to promoting agriculture and industrialization alongside job creation amongst others when voted into office in December as President of a CPP-led government.
Speaking at a meeting with a cross-section of chiefs at Mepe, Madam Frimpomaa noted that even though the CPP has been late in its political struggles and fortunes over the years, she takes consolation from the fact that all Ghanaians including the country’s youth and adults know the state of the country today.
She expressed grave concern about the current negative impact of illegal mining on the country’s water resources, and farmlands, and the health effects on the country’s population, describing the situation not only as very worrying but also deadly.
The CPP flagbearer regretted that the current state of the country is not what the CPP Founder, Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah envisaged for Ghana and stressed the need for all Ghanaians to end the 32-year duopoly of the NDC and NPP by voting for the CPP to ensure a paradigm shift in the country’s destiny.
Madam Frimpomaa stated that the CPP believes in the development agenda of every single Ghanaian irrespective of tribal, political, and ethnic affiliations and origin, saying everybody matters to the Convention People’s Party (CPP). ‘We will give back ownership to the Ghanaian again. I am here because we want to give back Ghana to Ghanaians, the CPP flagbearer emphasized.
The CPP Presidential Candidate expressed concern about the deplorable road network in several parts of the region. She described the situation as a nightmare, adding that the development does not auger well for the socio-economic advancement of the region in particular and the country at large. ‘In Ghana today, we have a government by a few people, for a few people instead of government of the people, by the people and for the people’, Madam Frimpomaa lamented.
Togbe Kodzo Azagba IV who spoke on behalf of the chiefs, commended the CPP flagbearer for her tour of the region and urged the leadership to do more to win back the thousands of the original members and supporters of the CPP who had defected to the NDC and NPP over the years.
Togbe Azagba described the policies of the CPP for the country as laudable and innovative and wished the flagbearer and the CPP very well in the forthcoming 7th December general elections.
The CPP flagbearer who was accompanied on the tour by some regional and national executives of the party, later interacted with a cross-section of market women at the riverside market at Mepe.
