Ghana Palaver

The Ghana Palaver in its banner headline which reads "NDC committed to better living standards" reports that the NDC government as part of its social contract has promised to uphold and enhance the living standards of every Ghanaian and at no point will it abandon them since they remain the cornerstone of its development agenda. These, the paper says, were the words of the Vice- President, Prof. J.E.A. Mills when he addressed a mammoth rally of defectors who have joined the NDC through the Veranda Club at Yendi. Prof Mills welcoming the defectors, who the paper says are mostly NPP supporters, urged all those who cherished peace and development to join the NDC. The presidential advisor on Governmental Affairs, Alhaji Mahama Iddrisu disclosed at the rally that the NDC government has voted ?35 billion for road maintenance in the Northern region while ?4.8 billion has been earmarked for the Yendi township roads, this year.
