Voting NPP out in 2020 will be sacrilegious - DCE

Mr Wisdom Senanu Seneadza, the District Chief Executive of Afadzato South, has said the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) plan for economic liberation was the right path to ensure the development of the country.

"There is massive progress under Akufo-Addo and it would be a mistake to change Government in 2020- that would be sacrilegious", he said.

The DCE said this in an interview with the Ghana News Agency on the sidelines of a New Year gathering of the aged in the District organised by Kafui Foundation, a Non-Governmental Organisation.

He said Ghanaians must ‘hold their stomachs’ because “crucial” interventions that would completely transform the nation is ongoing.

Mr Seneadza said the general economic outlook, free SHS, and the creation of new regions were clear indications of an able leadership that must be given more time to better the lot of the people.

The DCE said the massive reorganisation of the agricultural sector, which had succeeded in ending corn imports and halved that of rice, was a vindication of the NPP's approach to national transformation.

He said the people of Ghana must unite to lift themselves out of poverty and that Government was giving the youth hope by providing them with jobs.

"I will entreat all of us to stop thinking about the next election. We must instead focus on the next generation and remove barriers between the NDC and the NPP for development", he said.
