NPP says it will win 18 seats in Central Region

Mr Francis Egyarko Donkoh, the Central Regional Youth Organizer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has predicted that the party would win 18 out of the 23 parliamentary seats in the Central Region.

He said the party’s youth wing, including students associations in tertiary institutions, are working hard to ensure that the target is achieved.

Mr Donkoh said this at the inauguration of the Senior Patriots Club of the University of Education Winneba (UEW) in Winneba.

He said the youth wing, apart from house to house campaign to explain the message of the party to voters especially floating ones, would also be vigilant at the polling stations on December 7.

Mr Donkoh said the NPP had the capacity to fulfill its campaign promises and the party’s presidential candidate, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, had a vision and urged Ghanaians to vote massively for him on December 7.

He appealed to NPP supporters to step up their campaign on free Senior High School education to parents to understand the need to vote for NPP.

Mr Alex Afenyo Markin, NPP parliamentary candidate for Effutu, appealed to voters in the constituency to reject the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to pave way for development projects.

Mr Markin appealed to the supporters not to launch personal attacks on their political opponents but give them reasons why they should vote for the NPP.
