NDC welcomes critics into its fold

Ashaiman (Greater Accra) 30th September 99 - Mrs Faustina Nelson, National Vice-Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) on Thursday inaugurated the Ashaiman Lorry Park Food Vendors Association with an invitation to all critics of the party to join them.

She said the NDC is a mass national party, which does not discriminate in choosing its members and would welcome even those, who insulted the party in the past in its bid to build a united country.

Mrs Nelson said due to the good policies of the government, Ghana is developing very fast and prospects for the future are brighter, adding that it is only the ungrateful ones who would say that the NDC has not done anything for this country.

She cited the peaceful political atmosphere and stability, improved roads and communication network and the intestate succession law, which has benefit women and their children.

Mr. Yaw Akrasi-Sarpong, National Organiser of the NDC observed that the track record of politics has shown that the NDC government has been the fairest government in this country.

He cited instances where people in opposition have been appointed to head banks and other vital institutions in the country without any regard to their political affiliation.

Mr. Alfred Agbesi, a Tema Legal Practitioner, who chaired the function reminded the food vendors that the government has spent a lot of money to construct the station and advised them to keep the place clean.

Mr. Agbesi cautioned them against conniving with criminals to steal the luggage of travellers.
