NDC’s manifesto presents hope- Della Sowah
Member of Parliament for the people of Kpando Constituency,Della Sowah has said that the manifesto of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) presents hope to Ghanaians.
According to her, the people of Ghana do not deserve the pain and economic mess experienced under the current administration.
Speaking to the media after the launch of the party’s manifesto over the weekend at Winneba in the Central Region, she said, Ghanaians cannot continue to endure another four years of excruciating pain under the same New Patriotic Party.
She said former president Mahama’s decision to scrap nuisance taxes, improve education, implement a bold $10 billion infrastructure investment to cater for public housing projects, offering free tertiary education to the disabled and first year students would go a long way to impact lives in the country.
According to her, Mahama’s pledge to scrap draconian taxes like E-levy, COVID levy, 10% levy on bet winnings, and Emissions levy within his first 90 days in office would help to alleviate hardships and ease the high cost of doing business.
The former Deputy Minister said, the NDC manifesto promise to Institute inquiries and/or forensic audits into matters of public interest such as the collapse of Indigenous Ghanaian banks and financial institutions at a supposed cost of GHS25 billion, illegal printing of money, the US$58 million National Cathedral scandal, illegal and inflated single- sourced contracts, COVID-19 expenditure scandal, PDS, Agyapa, SML, Ambulance spare parts deal, 13th African Games, Sky Train, Pwalugu Dam, Maths Sets, Galamsey Fraud, missing excavators and tricycles, Sputnik-V, BOST Scandal, and others provides hope.
She was optimistic that such action would help the nation recoup some corrupt monies for other developmental projects.
Against this backdrop, Della Sowah urged Ghanaians to vote massively for the former President to reset the country on a path to development.
