Ghanaians should take us serious – Ayariga's APC

The founder and leader of the All People’s Congress (APC), Hassan Ayariga has appealed to Ghanaians to regard his political party as a serious political entity.

According to him, the APC is prepared to manage and run the affairs of Ghana by winning the November polls.

The Electoral Commission (EC) on Friday presented a final certificate of operations to the APC which was formed in February 2016.

Mr. Ayariga, the 2012 presidential candidate of the People’s National Convention (PNC) defected after losing the bid to represent the party in the 2016 elections.

In an interview with Accra-based Joy FM, the APC leader said Ghana needs change because “the NDC has failed, the NPP has failed… we need a new face and the new face is the APC.”

He urged Ghanaians to support the APC saying, “Ghanaians should take us serious because we are serious ourselves. We have demonstrated to the world that we are not just talking like other political parties.”

“They should come out and we will let them know that we are a serious political party by satisfying the constitutional requirement of our land and satisfying the requirements of the EC,” he added.
