PPP campaign will focus on infrastructure dev’t – Aspirant

The Progressive People’s Party (PPP) parliamentary candidate for Obuasi East, Mr Frank Aboagye Danyansah has vowed to annex the seat and reverse the underdevelopment of the area by focusing on investment in infrastructure expansion.

He said the sure way for the constituency to benefit from the local resources is to accept the PPP whose agenda is to ensure judicious resource management and unwavering devotion to improve quality education, better healthcare, enhanced security and job creation.

He accused successive political regimes of misusing resources endowed in communities around Obuasi, thereby exposing the people to extreme poverty and suffering.

“The NDC [National Democratic Congress] is messing up with the resources, they are just creating loot and share, the incumbent New Patriotic Party member of parliament has also messed up,” he claimed.

Mr Danyansah told the Ghana News Agency that the PPP is launching a campaign of ideas, focusing on fixing the infrastructure deficits confronting the area to guarantee better living for the people.

He pledged the part’s resolve to snatch the seat without to resort to bickering and rancour.

The award-winning estate developer stated that the party is not obsessed with winning the Obuasi East seat but committed to safeguarding and using resources judiciously to improve living standards.

He noted that successive political leaders muddled up the massive resources the area is gifted, a situation, he observed has pushed significant number of the people to live below the poverty line.

Mr Danyansah said many communities in Obuasi are battling with inaccessible roads, power supply vacuum, potable water, poor healthcare facilities and schools while graduate unemployment is mounting.

He also said a number of children are abandoning schools to engage in illegal mining while the government machinery look unconcern, a development, he said of not checked would expose children to hazardous living and loss of quality labour force to the nation.

He said the PPP is launching a campaign of ideas to herald what he called “the end of agony of the people and open a new era of bridging development gap to advance quality of life”.
