The Vice Presidential Candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Prof. Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, has called on voters to prioritize their developmental needs as they head to the polls on December 7, 2024.

Speaking to NDC supporters at Adiembra Zezera in the Dormaa West Constituency during her campaign tour of the Bono Region, Prof. Opoku-Agyemang highlighted the NDC's achievements across various sectors, including health, education, roads, electricity, water, markets, and aviation.

“We promised to build 200 secondary schools, and before leaving office in 2017, Ghanaians saw the ones we built, which are visible to all.

The NPP also promised to build 350 brand new schools. We want to know how many they have built and where they are,” she remarked, emphasizing the importance of holding the government accountable for its promises.

Prof. Opoku-Agyemang noted that elections should focus on the track records of parties and urged the current government to showcase its accomplishments.

She cautioned voters against falling for temporary inducements from the government aimed at securing votes, such as distributing money just before elections.

“Because elections are coming, they will bring money and share it with people to win votes, despite having denied them essential services like water, schools, roads, and electricity.

This has been their usual tactic, which is why we are not seeing the schools and other developmental projects they promised,” she stated.

Prof. Opoku-Agyemang encouraged voters to support NDC Presidential Candidate John Dramani Mahama in the upcoming elections, assuring them that his leadership would bring significant development to the country. She highlighted key initiatives such as the Big Push, the National Apprenticeship Programme, the Women’s Development Bank, and the 24-Hour Economy as examples of policies that would create jobs and drive progress under Mahama’s leadership.
