Mr Peter Mac Manu, the National Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), on Thursday appealed to the electorate to vote massively for the party in the forthcoming by-election for the Fomena constituency seat.
He said "I am certain that NPP will win on Tuesday", at a mini rally at Akrokerri-Bobriase to introduce Nana Abu Bonsra, the party’s parliamentary candidate to the people.
Mr Mac Manu said, "We are here to appeal to you to vote massively for NPP to bring you development and progress’’ and appealed to the electorate to also extend their goodwill to the party in the next general election.
The NPP National Chairman said he was confident that NPP would win more parliamentary seats in the 2008 elections.
The General Secretary of the party, Nana Ohene Ntow, said the government had done a lot to improve the social-economic state of the country adding that the revival of the cocoa industry alone was a big plus to the Kufuor-led NPP government.
Nana Ntow asked the people not to allow themselves to be deceived by disgruntled politicians who had nothing to offer the country.
Professor Kwabena Frimpong-Boateng, the Chief Executive of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, and an NPP presidential aspirant, said NPP was the best party in the country and appealed to the people to support the party at all times.
He urged the people to register with the National Health Insurance Scheme saying, "Do not allow anybody to deceive you not to register with the scheme".
Mr Kofi Tieku, 2004 independent parliamentary candidate for the Fomena constituency, who had announced his return to the party, appealed to his supporters to vote for the NPP.
Mr Tieku said he did not have bad intentions about the NPP when he left it to contest for the seat as independent candidate.
He said "I want you all to vote this time for Nana Abu Bonsra, even more than the votes you gave me in 2004".
Mr Kwabena Appiah-Pinkrah, the Member of Parliament (MP) for Akrofuom, gave the assurance that the road from Akrokerri through Bobriase to Kyeaboso would definitely be tarred by the NPP government.
The party had earlier in the day introduced Nana Abu Bonsra to the Akrokerri Training College community where the party officials including MPs from Bosomtwe and Denkyira took turns to address the students.
