NPP must stop making unrealistic promises – Agyenim Boateng

A deputy Information Minister, James Agyenim-Boateng has described as laughable claims by NPP flagbearer, Nana Akufo Addo that the NDC can’t be trusted by Ghanaians.

The NPP flagbearer told Chiefs and people of the Kwabre West District in the Ashanti Region, that Ghanaians must vote out the NDC government because they have a track record of failed promises.

But Mr. Agyenim-Boateng in a reaction said the NPP is rather guilty of those accusations.

Mr. Agyenim-Boateng stated that the NPP failed to live up to more than 77 promises made in their year 2000 manifesto.

According to Mr. Agyenim-Boateng, Nana Akufo-Addo and the NPP enjoy making unrealistic promises because they take Ghanaians for granted.

He said “on page 15 of the 2000 manifesto of the NPP they said they were going to modernize and extend railway network connecting to the Northern region within the next decade.

“You know by the time they left office they had bought a locomotive but had sold the rail tracks.

“Clearly Nana Addo and the NPP don’t take the good people of Ghana seriously, they don’t make realistic promises and I think that the records show that the NDC keeps it record and I think that Nana Addo cannot have any moral high ground of talking about Ghanaians being worried about the NDC and manifesto promises”.
