Tue, 21 Aug 2012 Source: NDC USA

The NDC USA congratulates his Excellency John Dramani Mahama on the occasion of his appointment as President of Ghana. We additionally applaud his choice for Vice President, Mr. Amissah Arthur. The Vice President’s excellent performance during parliamentary vetting has already been noted by many Ghanaians and is a vindication of the President’s decision. We are also greatly encouraged by President Mahama’s call for all Ghanaians to remain united in our search for a better Ghana.

The rank and file of NDC USA has also noted with great pride, the overwhelming positive response the President’s recent visits to parts of the country has generated. We also wish the Muslim community a Happy Eid- Ul-Fitr. Barka da-Sallah! May Allah answer your prayers and supplications, may blessings of prosperity, peace and good tidings flow from Allah, the beneficent to our dear nation. May the reward of your days of fasting through the Ramadan afford the country’s leadership wisdom and excellence.

The NDC USA is encouraged by the seriousness exhibited by the NDC party leadership as was evident in endorsing President Mahama as the flag bearer of the NDC. It is our fervent hope that the representatives of the party during the forthcoming congress will with an overwhelming majority, support His Excellency President Mahama to lead the party to victory at the 2012 polls.

The days following the passing of President Mills have indeed been sad, painful and heart wrenching. Notwithstanding this, Ghanaians with unified grief have proudly exhibited our rich traditional cultural heritage even as we mourned. Without controversy, the NDC USA wishes to observe that, the outpouring of grief by Ghanaians both in the homeland and in the diaspora attest to the benign influence his leadership has had on his beloved country. Beyond the thousands of schools that his administration constructed, beyond the many rural communities that received electricity for the very first time, the hospitals that were built and those that received modern diagnostic technology to help bring relief to many a sick Ghanaians, beyond the two Universities whose seed have been planted and in years to come will increase Ghana’s skilled manpower; was a man who affected his country, his party, and his administration with humility and the service of God. It is our belief that Ghanaians will as a result elect John Mahama as the President of Ghana, during the 2012 polls, having in mind the good work he did together with the late President Mills.

We thank the Funeral Planning Committee for successful and befitting funeral rites. We congratulate all the political leaders in Ghana who worked together to ensure a smooth transition of power.

As a result of their collective maturity, grace and thoughtfulness Ghana continues to be recognized as a stable democracy and safe destination for foreign investment. It is our hope and prayer that in the coming months Ghanaians will return NDC to power to continue the good work of bettering the livelihood of all Ghanaians. Yema Ghanafo nyinaa ayekoo!

Signed
