DR. NDUOM ENDS ASHANTI CAMPAIGN TOUR

-

The Flagbearer of the Progressive People’s Party, Dr. Paa Kwesi Nduom has urged Ghanaians to ignore the empty promises of his opponents and vote for the one who doesn’t promise but delivers.

 Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom said while some of his opponents are making promises, he has already established banks in all 216 districts in the country. 

He made this declaration while addressing party faithful at Ejisu, Manhyia North and Nhyiaeso constituencies in the Ashanti Region as part of his campaign tour. 

 Dr. Nduom called on Ghanaians to ignore both the National Democratic Congress party and New Patriotic Party and rather vote PPP for massive development in the economy. 

He said PPP will ensure quality health care, road construction, education and proper sanitation system for Ghanaians when voted into power come December 7.

  Dr. Nduom said with Obuasi been one of the communities in Ghana that produces gold, he promised to construct a gold refinery there.

 With the gold refinery in place, he said Ghanaians would be able to add value to the raw materials extracted, adding that this will create employment thereby reducing illegal mining activities on the part of the youth. 

Dr. Ndoum said PPP is prepared to make education free from the kindergarten to the Senior High School level to assist school going age children to have access to quality education.

 He added that the money to fund the various initiatives can easily be generated internally through prudent management of resources and placing priorities right. 

According to the Dr Nduom, PPP is made up of the best men and women determined to govern the country with a sense of urgency and commitment. 

He used the opportunity to introduce the party’s parliamentary candidates to the electorate and urged Ghanaians to vote for them in the pending elections. 

They are Isaac Prah for the Ejisu constituency, Betrin Amponsah Britwum for Manhyia North and Kofi Debrah Afrifa for Nhyiaeso.

THE STATE OF KUMASI'S 'INDUSTRIAL AREA

-
The once Industrial enclave of the Ashanti region within the Kumasi metropolis is fast losing its status as the nerve centre of jobs for the people.     This is due to the collapse of most of the companies in quick succession in  the last few years for various reasons. Background Industrialization was a key component of the first wholly indigenous government of Ghana led by Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah. The Ashanti region was not left out in this drive which was meant to create decent jobs for the residents, particularly the youth.  Asokwa, Ahinsan, Kaase, Atonsu and Kyirapatre were the communities that became what is known as the ‘Industrial Area’ of Ashanti from the early 60s.  The christening of this enclave as the ‘Industrial Area’ was the people’s appreciation of the numerous state and privately owned companies that were sited there.  These communities fall within present day Asokwa Constituency which is in the western part of the metropolis from the Accra d

KWAMANG SHS NEEDS URGENT HELP

New Campus of the Kwamang Presby SHS The Kwamang Presby Senior High/Technical School in the Sekyere Central district of Ashanti needs an urgent external intervention to address some of its pressing basic needs to function very well.  A visit by Ashanti Today to the school’s premises revealed that the school does not have an administrative block to administer affairs of the school for which reason the Headmistress, the Bursar and another staff are sharing one room which has been partitioned, while the Assistant Headmaster, the rest of the Accounts staff among other administrative officers are also working from an improvised classroom. Anybody who visits the Kwamang Presby Senior High Technical school for the first time will unavoidably take it for a basic school.  This is more so when it appears to be perching on the premises of the local Junior High School as its old site.  The school is wallowing in a myriad of challenges that are seriously militating against
