Akufo Addo Deserves 95% Votes for His Fulfilled Promises – Asenso Boakye

New Patriotic Party (NPP) Parliamentary candidate for the Bantama constituency, Francis Asenso-Boakye has urged residents of his constituency to massively cast their votes for President Akufo Addo in the forthcoming elections.

Speaking at a sod-cutting ceremony to commence the construction of the Kokoso-Asuboteng area roads within the Bantama constituency on Thursday, the Deputy Chief of Staff at the Presidency insisted the Akufo Addo led government is committed to fulfilling all its promises as already demonstrated.

He said, “we have demonstrated that the NPP government has the best interest of the Ashanti region at heart, and we are going to do more to alleviate the plights of our people.”

“In 2016 when then candidate Nana Akufo-Addo promised to implement his flagship programmes, such as the Free SHS, One District One Factory, among others, the NDC and John Mahama said they he could not fulfil them, but today, we all bear witness to the fulfillment of these interventions that have brought great relief to all Ghanaians. So if we gave Nana Akufo-Addo and the NPP 88% of total votes in 2016 here in Bantama, I believe it is fair to say that he deserves 95% of votes in 2020 for fulfilling all those promises made to us in 2016.”

Asenso Boakye added, “The importance of good roads extends to all aspects of development of our communities as it contributes to the provision of jobs, access to healthcare and education services, among others. Had the NPP won in 2008, this road would have been long completed but it was neglected by the previous NDC administration. Today, we all bear witness to the visionary leadership of the President Akufo-Addo that has led the implementation of Free SHS policy, Planting for Food and Jobs, One District, One Factory; and the setting up of a vehicle assembling plant by automobile giant VW in Ghana, among others.” 

Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwasi Amoako Atta who was also present disclosed that, “out of the total 80,000km road networks in the country, only 23% had seen some construction when the NPP took office in January 2017. However, I can boldly say that there are ongoing road constructions in all 260 district assemblies in the country.”
