The Young Cadres of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has organised a free medical screening exercise for residents of Jamasi in the Afigya Sekyere East constituency of the Ashanti Region.
Mr Bright Botchway, General Secretary of the Association, in a statement copied to the GNA explained that the exercise was organised in collaboration with Mr Awudu Salim, the Parliamentary Candidate for the constituency.
It forms part of programmes outlined by the group to support the party in its goals of providing universal access to healthcare to retain power after the general election.
Among participants at the event were Mr Edward Ayarkwah, Sekyere South District District Chief Executives of Young Cadres Association, the NDC Parliamentary Candidate of the constituency, Chairman and other executives.
Mr Ayarkwah commended Young Cadres for initiating such a programme as it would go a long way to reduce the burden of government in providing medical care for the people.
He entreated other benevolent organisations to replicate the action by Young Cadres, adding that health care provision is a shared responsibility by all in the society.
Mr Michael Mwimbe Dery, President of the Association, disclosed that his group had earmarked on a number of activities to be undertaken across the country with a view to support the party retain power.
He encouraged executives of the party in the constituency to iron out their differences and support the Parliamentary Candidate and leader of the party in realising the party’s “Operation One Million Votes” in the Ashanti Region.
Mr Salim thanked the Association for their support and called on the group for further support to promote the good works undertaken by the leader of the party in the constituency.
