The United Democratic Party (UDP) has promised to take strong measures to provide more protection for local businesses if given the mandate to govern by voters.
The Founder of the party, Dr. Yaw Kummey, said growing the private sector would be made a major priority on its development agenda.
He told the Ghana News Agency (GNA) in an interview that the party had a firm conviction that this was the way forward to create wealth and jobs for the people.
He said the government of the UDP would work hard and with zeal to turn the economy around and lift the people out of poverty.
It would do this by assembling “professionals and the best brains” to find workable and enduring solutions to the development challenges faced by the nation.
Dr. Kummey, himself an accomplished entrepreneur, who chairs the “Ykummey International Group of Companies”, said his party would perform to the expectation of people.
It would not make any election promise, it was convinced it could not deliver.
The UDP would not resort to lies and deception to get the electorate to vote it into power, he stated.
Dr. Kummey called for Ghanaians to trust the party with their votes, adding that, they would not regret the decision of choosing it over the other political parties.
He said the UDP had all that it took to take Ghana to the “promised land” – to make the country a better place for everybody.
