NDC Washington Proud of Mahama's Performance

NDC Washington Metro Branch is Proud of President Mahama's sterling Debate
Performance.
The NDC Washington DC branch wishes to congratulate President John Dramani
Mahama for acquitting himself very credibly during the Presidential Debate
in Tamale, Ghana. The event which was watched by thousands of Ghanaians in
the Diaspora because it was streamed live via the Internet, saw the
President displaying an in depth knowledge of all the sectors of Ghana. We remain
very proud of the President's performance, we are encouraged that the
President clearly outlined the achievements and plans of government in the
agricultural, educational, health, energy, manpower (employment) sectors as
well as the NDC led administration's successful management of the economy. As
the president stated the NDC led government has reduced inflation to a
single digit and increased economic growth by double digits, governments’
investments in agriculture remains unprecedented. In education government has
not only established two universities, it has built 1700 elementary schools,
renovated hundreds of SHS schools increased salaries of teachers and the
capitation grants for SHS institutions.

It is our view that the President's in depth knowledge of the issues, as
compared to the NPP flag bearer who when asked for the source of his data
simply referred to the Internet as his source which shows clearly which party
is serious about the development of Ghana. The NPP's plans for education
is impractical and confused, all the NPP Presidential candidate could speak
to was Free SHS, he could not address the issue of teacher remuneration and
training, nor could he address the glaring deficits in infrastructure that
exists in Ghana's educational sector. Again and again the NPP flag bearer
was found wanting when faced with facts and figures, this was the case in
the areas of the National Health Insurance Scheme and the larger Health
sector, Agriculture, Energy and the Economy.
President Mahama remained cool, calm and presidential all through the
debate. His statements were backed with reliable figures which were from
official sources. Notwithstanding the unpresidential conduct and comments of Nana
Akuffo Addo, President Mahama maintained his composure and properly and
professionally addressed the problems of Ghana. The President will continue
to advance the Better Ghana Agenda, and we the NDC Washington Metro Branch
remain proud of the President performance.
Mr. President, NDC Washington Metro Branch congratulates you. We wish you
the best come December 7 and we confidently await the one-touch victory.
Eye Zu! Eye Za!
Signed
Francis Agbodzah
(Secretary), NDC Washington Metro
