NDC would only accept 2008 election results in Ghana

Breman Asikuma (C/R) Sept. 2,GNA The flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Professor Evans Atta Mills has reiterated that the party would not accept any results coming from outside Ghana in the 2008 elections.

"The NPP knows for sure that they would not win the 2008 general elections hence their efforts to ensure that Ghanaians outside the country participate in the elections".

Prof. Atta Mills said this on Friday when inaugurating the rehabilitated Asikuma-Odoben-Brakwa Constituency office of the party at Breman Asikuma.

The rehabilitation cost the party 28.7 million cedis. Prof. Atta Mills said Ghanaians should vote for him because he is the "saviour who would bring them out of the numerous hardships". The General Secretary of the party, Mr. Johnson Asiedu Nketiah advised supporters of the party to avoid using provocative and abusive language during their campaigning.

He urged them to work harder to win more votes for the party for victory in the 2008 elections.

He said the NPP has disappointed Ghanaians, especially the Central Region, which they claimed as one of the four deprived regions but much has not been done to reverse the situation.

Mr. Asiedu Nketiah therefore appealed to the people to vote for Prof. Atta Mills as President and the NDC to revitalise the socio-economic development of the country.

Pro. Atta Mills was later assisted by the constituency women organizer, Mrs. Georgina Nkrumah Boah, Mr. Anthony Robert Frimpong, both aspiring parliamentarians of the constituency and Mr. Samuel Aidoo, constituency chairman, to cut the tape to inaugurate the office. Among those at the function were Mr. Antwi Boasiako, campaign manager to Pro. Atta Mills, Mr. Samuel Valis Achianu, Central Regional Chairman of the Party and other NDC activists.
