We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Dr Prof Atta-Mills on being elected the President of Ghana in the 2008 Elections. We wish to take this opportunity to thank all our numerous supporters across Europe from Norway to Spain on efforts made financially and personally towards the strengthening of the NDC EU Group, the NDC Party and more especially the Elections Campaign.
Over the last few Years the NDC EU Group has been growing from strength to strength with the current addition to our numbers of the Norwegian Branch. It is our aim that in 2009 we would have other European Branches added to our numbers and to impact our strength and experience to the various Constituencies and Party in Ghana.
In the coming year we would be rolling out a series of Programmes targeted at enhancing the Capabilities and Competencies of the NDC Constituency Branches across Ghana. Democracy is not just a laudable sentiment. In fact, the promotion of genuine democracy and respect for human rights is a determining factor in the attainment of sustainable human development and lasting peace in Ghana and across our African continent. That is why the NDC EU Group would continue to support our Party in this area, such as promoting the right to participate in the establishment of governments through free and fair elections, as well as strengthening the role of our Parliamentarians, University Partners and the various Constituencies. These actions can make a major contribution to our peace, security, prevention of conflicts and our long-term Prosperity.
As Prof Atta-Mills forms his Government, we believe that he would deliver what he promised to Ghanaians. However this is not the end. It is the beginning of a long-process towards the entrenchment of our Democracy in our Body Politics and the Economic Development of our country. There would still be a lot to do in the development of the various processes to build a viable and sustainable Party to contribute to the Sustainable Development of Ghana. To the NPP we say well done to a well fought fight and we wish you all the best as an Opposition Party to help strengthen the Democratic Agenda in the country.
As the NDC EU Group waits for our Executives to roll out the NDC EU Group 2009 Agenda, we would like to take this opportunity to wish all Ghanaians a Successful New Year and the Very Best of an Atta-Mills Govt.
