The Communication Director at the presidency Koku Anyidoho has said that the achievements under the president Mills led government in three and a half years, combined with the president’s persona will move the National Democratic Congress (NDC) over the 2012 bridge.

He said President Mills did not need to mount a campaign platform and shout to the high heavens because his achievements and his character are key to retaining power in 2012.

The communications director at the seat of government indicated that the party has a potpourri of strategies which would be rolled up in August after the NDC officially launches its campaign for the December polls.

When queried by the sit in morning show host of Radio Gold Obuobia Darko Opoku of what had happened to the president’s surprise visits, Mr. Anyidoho said, ‘’campaign has always been in motion and the first man of the land will continue with that project soon.’’

He said, ‘’ I am very confident of a second term for the party for the reason that, the current government has been able to deliver majority of the manifesto pledge in three and a half years as compared to the then New Patriotic Party (NPP) under President Kufuor.

A lot has been done, we haven’t achieved everything and for that matter the president is first to admit that not everything has been done but a lot has been achieved,’’ Koku said.

He mentioned the road construction and rehabilitation across the country, the massive infrastructural developments, construction of schools and health posts as some of the strides that the government had made.

‘’The people of Ghana will look strongly at the visible achievements of President Mills and renew his mandate.’’

He recounted some of the achievements chalked under the NDC regime three and half years down the line, the establishment of the two Universities one in the Volta Region for Health and Allied Science and the other in the Brong Ahafo region for Natural resources which starts admission this September in earnest, he mentioned the elimination of schools under trees, investment in the health sector, construction of poly clinics across the regions and health assistant training schools.

Midwifery health training centers using I C T as part of training process, provision of electricity, drastic reduction in crime rate, strengthening of institutions like the Fire Service and the Security agencies are investments and achievements of the President Mills led government in three and half years, ‘’it did not happen under Kuffuor.’’

Most importantly is the bold decision by the president to implement the single spine salary structure.

These are some of the achievements which will speak on behalf of the NDC in the 2012 general elections, and they shan’t lie.
