More jobs for Ghanaians- Nduom

Accra April 19, GNA - A Convention People's Party (CPP)government would ensure that adequate support is given to both public and private sectors to enable them to provide more jobs for Ghanaians, Dr Paa Kwesi Nduom, the party's presidential candidate, has said.

He said the support would include the provision of tax incentives, money, expertise, revitalization of state farms, factories and the creation of local markets for their products. Dr Nduom said this on Friday at a mini rally organized by the Osu Klottey constituency to introduce the party's presidential candidate. He said CPP was the only party that could bring economic prosperity to the country and therefore called on the electorate to vote for it to solve the country's economic problems.

Dr Nduom said "CPP is 'Adwumawura" (that is a party that creates jobs) and therefore could create jobs and would go with good wages. He said many Ghanaians are ready for a change but are not prepared to vote for just anybody. "They can look at us as the alternative."

"I want to be a leader who will implement policies with a sense of urgency," he said and expressed regret that the country had delayed in implementing policies. Dr Nduom said he was confident the CPP would win the December election. "CPP has a track record and that we are working to win. If there is going to be a run-off, CPP will win."

He advised CPP party supporters to register with the electoral commission when the registration opens next month. Madam Suzzy Adu-Amankwa, Grater Accra Regional Chairman of CPP, said the nation had witness the work of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) so it was the turn of the CPP to liberate Ghana from hardship.
