NDC executives tour constituencies

Nkwabeng (B/A), July 8, GNA - A three-member delegation of the Brong-Ahafo Regional Women's wing of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has toured constituencies in Nkoranza and appealed to women to take part in the impending district assembly election.

They are Nana Adwoa Takyiwaa, the Rgional Women's Organizer and her deputies, Madam Georgina Poupiel and Madam Ntene Adam. Addressing the supporters at Nkwabeng and Donkro-Nkwanta in Nkoranza South district, Nana Takyiwaa urged women to also get involved in unit committee elections.

She expressed concern about the lukewarm attitude of women to participate in public activities, saying this had caused their low representation in the assemblies.

Nana Takyiwaa appealed to the supporters to be wary of politicians who would attempt to create divisions within their rank and advised the youth against the use of insults and provocative language during campaigns. Mr. Emmanuel Kwadwo Agyekum, District Chief Executive, commended the wing for their initiative and gave the assurance that the assembly would perform to win the confidence of the people. At Nkwabeng, Madam Margaret Fordjour, zonal women's organizer, called on the government to provide credit facilities for women in the area.
