The Women’s Wing of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Akuapem North Constituency of the Eastern Region embarked on a community engagement to educate the constituents about the ongoing limited voter registration exercise.
Speaking to Kingdom News, the Woman Organizer for the Constituency, Linda Darkwa who spearheaded the move noted that they saw the importance of one acquiring the voter Identification Card; hence took it upon themselves to enter every home, marketplace, ghetto, and lorry station to educate those who have not registered to ensure they get involved to see them exercise their franchise come December 7, 2024, general elections.
Akuapem North has targeted to register about 3,000 new voters, and they have done over 2000 out of the expected figure in the ongoing limited voter registration exercise which will end on May 29, 2024.
Linda Darkwa and her team used the opportunity and campaign for both Sammi Awuku, the Parliamentary Candidate for Akuapem North Constituency, and Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia the leader and flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, and urged the residents of the area especially the new voters to vote for them amid retaining the NPP in power.
According to her, Sammi Awuku, without a doubt has proven himself that when the good people of Akuapem North allow him to become the Member of Parliament of the constituency they will swim in developmental projects, which will go a long way to benefit the youth.
The Akuapem North NPP Woman’s Organizer was speaking to Kingdom FM’s KONTIHEN KOFI OBOH about how the limited voter registration exercise in the area.
She then added that they want the NPP to retain power in 2025 and continue developing and transforming Ghana; hence embarking on such an exercise to encourage those who have not registered yet to and register to be able to make the right decision in the upcoming December 7, 2024, general elections.
“Where President Akufo Addo and his Vice President Dr. Alhaji Mahamudu Bawumia has raised Ghana to, NPP government deserved continuation,” Some members of the women’s wing said.
They continue “Many years ago, parents used to sell their clothes before they could send their wards to Senior Secondary School but with the implementation of the Free Senior High education by the NPP government today Children are schooling for free without paying a penny and the burden of the parents is no more.
President Akufo Addo and Bawumia have done a lot in the past 7 years for the country which is why they saw the need to flood the various communities in the Constituency to propagate the good works of the NPP government to them to go and register and vote NPP again in 2024 general elections to do more for Ghana,” they stressed.
