NDC Dallas Texas Branch Congratulates President Mahama.

A number of Ghanaians now living in the Dallas, Texas area of the U.S.A

have come together to form a new NDC USA branch. The group has been

consistently meeting since January.

During a meeting on Saturday, March 2, 2013 the branch's new executives

released its first press statement congratulating President John Dramani

Mahama for handsomely winning the December 2012 Presidential elections.

According to the statement, “the victory of NDC in the election was as a result of

the many developmental projects that the NDC led administration had in an

unprecedented manner been able to achieve during its four year rule since

its electoral victory in 2008.” The press statement also congratulated the

Party leadership for a well-planned and masterfully executed campaign.

The NDC Texas branch encouraged the New Patriotic Party to reconsider its

stance of refusing to accept the obvious truth that the NDC totally

walloped her during the 2012 elections as seen by the surplus of about 50 seats

won by NDC at the parliamentary level making it the majority party in

parliament.

The statement read, “it is also regrettable that the NPP parliamentarians

have chosen to boycott important parliamentary duties such as vetting

ministerial appointees." The NPP's conduct in parliament during the President's

State of the Nation's address in which they displayed placards with the

inscription ‘stealers’ boldly displayed was "disrespectful,

unparliamentarily and in bad taste. The statement said that, "the voice

of the people is the voice of God." It went on to commend the President

for the wise choices he has so far made during the appointment process and

prayed that God may steady the hand of the President as he tries to resolve

the current challenges to power supply in Ghana.

The chairperson, Mrs. Janet Akweley Wilson stated that, “Ghana, the NDC

and President Mahama will continue to be in the prayers of all members of the

branch." You have our support, and may the Good Lord guide you in your

daily handling of affairs of Mother Ghana. Congratulations once again.

The executives of NDC Texas branch which is based in Dallas are Janet

Akweley Wilson, Chairperson, Phillip Gyarko, Vice-Chairperson, Efui Tamakloe,

Secretary, Greg Marfo, Deputy Secretary, Kennedy Odame, Treasurer, Armstrong

Afful, Organizer and Hannah Yardley, Women's Organizer.
