Mr J.H. Mensah, Minority Leader in Parliament, has said the government cannot escape blame for the hardships the country is going through citing its mismanagement of the economy as the cause. "The NDC's bad economic policies have made it impossible for Ghanaians to lead decent lives", Mr Mensah said at a fund-raising rally organised by the Dormaa East constituency branch of the New Patriotic Party at Wamfie.
He called on Ghanaians to vote the NDC out and vote in the NPP to enable it to initiate sound policies to improve the economy.
Mr Mensah who is also the Member of Parliament for Sunyani East, said the government's policy of health-for-all by the year 2000 has failed because of the cash and carry system. He said that system would be abolished and an insurance scheme established under an NPP government to ensure quality health care.
Mr Kwadwo Adjei-Darko, MP for Sunyani West, said an NPP government would reduce the number of ministers as a way of cutting down on government expenditure.
He advised the people of the constituency to rally behind the party's parliamentary candidate, Mr Stephen Adoma Yeboah.
Mr Anthony Kusi, Regional Secretary of the party, asked the party's polling agents to be vigilant and check any election malpractice. Mr Adoma Yeboah assured the people of a dedicated service when voted to parliament.
