CPP on Socialist policies

The Convention People Party (CPP) on Monday said socialist policies remained unavoidable for addressing the current plight of the broad masses.

A statement signed by Mr Jonathan A. Attoh, Acting Greater Accra Regional Secretary of the party, said many years of political experimentations have not seen an end to abject poverty, ignorance and disease.

Dr Adolf Lutterodt, Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the party, said these in a New Year message to party members. "We need not talk only of positive change but more importantly positive action," the statement added.

It said it was high time that Ghanaians realised that the CPP's track record of fighting for Ghana's independence and Africa's emancipation was undisputable.

The statement said the party was commitment to uniting the country and transforming the economy to enable the people lived decent lives. It asked Ghanaians not to rush into making political choices, which could be wrong decisions.
