The Acting National chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Freddie Blay has urged the party’s supporters and executives, as well as the good people of the Northern region to remain positive for change in their lives.
Mr Blay also called on NPP members not to be provoked by members of the ruling party National Democratic Congress (NDC), saying that the Northern region has demonstrated its readiness for change.
Nana Addo is coming with change not for only NPP members but everybody so Ghanaians should know that the NDC has failed and that the person who will bring positive change in the lives of the good people of Ghana is the NPP flagbearer, according to him.
He made this remark during his two-day working visit to the Northern Region to interact with the party’s members, executives and parliamentary candidates of the NPP.
The NPP acting chairman told DAILY GUIDE that the NPP has a competent, credible and experienced team to take over from the incompetent NDC government.
“The notion that we should vote for our brother whether he’s doing well or not is a thing of the past, the lives of people in the country, including the Northern region, need to be improved.
He indicated that the country has been given a raw deal by the NDC through its corrupt, incompetent and dubious relationship with the people of this country.
Mr. Blay gave the assurance that when Nana Addo takes over power come December 7, he would be objective and treat everyone equally to improve the lives of Ghanaians.
He urged the media to help inform the good people of the Northern Region about NPP’s preparedness to govern the country peaceful.
Montie Saga
Touching on the recent sentencing of the Montie gang by the Supreme Court, Mr. Blay said “the law is the law, I have had the chance to listen to the tape and I think it’s unfortunate not just because they insulted judges or condemned judges of a court of competent jurisdiction but the element of threat of lives to the judges of the most superior court in our country.
He noted that to some extent, the Supreme Court was justified in sentencing the three persons to serve as deterrent for other people.
People should not think that they can threaten judges and get away with it, he indicated.
“What is surprising to me is the position of the NDC in this matter, which they have taken a very strong position on, members of government and high ranking individuals signing a petition to ask the government to get people out of prison because they belong to the NDC is most unfortunate.”
NHIS Registration
He appealed to Ghanaians to go and check their names on the voters’ register so that they can vote come December 7.
According to him, some people, who are not part of the 57,000 people, who registered with the NHIS cards, have had their names removed from the register.
“I am told that less than 30 percent of those whose names were removed were able to re-register and that is unfortunate because many of them don’t know; the publicity was bad and some might not find out that their names had been removed.”
