She is meeting with organized women groups canvassing for votes for the NPP.

Hajia Samira Bawumia addressed the leadership and members of the Northern Regional Chapter of the National Association of Tailors and Dressmakers at the Tamale Jubilee Park.

She urged them to massively vote for Nana Akufo Addo and all NPP Parliamentary candidates on December 7.

“NPP is coming to help and support you so we are pleading with you don’t let anybody come and deceive you. We know the suffering we are in today and so on December 7, we want all of you to vote massively for the NPP Presidential candidate, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo and all your Parliamentary candidates and make sure that victory shall be ours Insha Allah.”

“I want to assure you that when NPP wins, you should know that I am going to work for all of you. What will help your business, I will help you to get it Insha AllahP; for you to move forward. So all we need for you to do is to support us on December 7 so that we will get a one-touch victory for Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo and all your MPs,” she stressed.

She said if the NPP comes to power, it will support them with the needed logistics to boost their trade.

“Today; your business is not doing well, people are not sewing as much because the economy is not doing well. Insha Allah, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo and Alhaji Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia are coming to fix the economy so that you will get more business and move forward.”

“NPP brought MASLOC and we are having an entrepreneurship programme for young entrepreneurs. Those of you who want to start your own businesses we are going to provide loans for you to buy your machines and start your own businesses.”

Hajia Samira claimed that the Mahama-led National Democratic Congress (NDC) government has collapsed the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS).

“We are suffering in Ghana. Today your health insurance is not working well and Insha Allah when NPP comes we will make sure the health insurance is working so that when you go to the hospital they won’t say collect and go and buy medicine somewhere.”

She made a cash donation of Ghc1,000 in addition to the NPP regional secretariat’s cash donation of Ghc2,000 and 2,000 pairs of scissors as well as 1,000 pieces of tape measurements.

The NPP Northern Regional Chairman, Daniel Bugri Naabu, assured them that the party will fulfil every campaign promise when elected on December 7.

According to him, the governing NDC has nothing new to offer Ghanaians for which reason President John Dramani Mahama does not deserve a renewal of his mandate.

Addressing NPP supporters at Awutu Bontrase  in the Central Region during a mini rally of the party’s parliamentary candidate for the Awutu Senya constituency [George Andah], Mrs. Bawumia said the party has been guided by developments that took place during the 2012 elections, and has made a resolution to be more vigilant during this year [2016] polls.

“In 2012, we all saw what happened on the television. In some constituencies the results were inflated. When it was 27; then they will add zero and say 270. If we had been more vigilant, they would not have gotten the opportunity to rig the elections. But this election, we will be more vigilant.We will not allow them to rig the election.”

Vote NDC out of power 

She also charged residents in the area to vote against the NDC government in the upcoming elections.

According to her, the NDC government does not deserve another term since it has failed to provide basic amenities including water and electricity to residents in the constituency.

“I just want to ask you a few questions. Are you able to pay your light bills? Are you able to pay your water bills? Are you able to pay your children’s fees. Are you comfortable?Are there jobs for the youth? We are really suffering” she stated.

“If we have given the NDC eight years to govern the country and work hard to help the country, and the eight years is up and we are still suffering and they ask us to let them continue governing us, should we allow them? Will we give them an opportunity to continue putting us through this hardship and suffering?We are very tired and this election is our future. I know all of you have gathered here and are willing to vote for Nana Addo and George Andah to go to Parliament to bring development to this constituency.”

According to her, Ghanaians have only  experienced bad governance and incompetence under the NDC government.

“…You want us to see you, we see you but we see incompetence, we see you but we see corruption, we see you but we see bad management, we see you but we see bad governance, we see you but we want change, we see you but we want Ghana to move forward,” Samira Bawumia made the claim while speaking at the party’s Greater Accra Regional launch in the Tema East constituency on Sunday.

She also chastised the NDC government for spending GHc3.6 million of Ghana’s oil revenue on branding some 116 Metro Mass Transit (MMT) buses.

Mrs. Bawumia said despite the saga they continue to waste taxpayer’s money on giant bill boards and other party paraphernalia across the country.

“NDC used millions of our monies on bus branding. Ghanaians wailed and advised the NDC to withdraw the contract but they didn’t heed to the advice. Currently, NDC flags and Mahama’s billboards all over, they’ve branded every part of Ghana with Mahama’s posters,” she added.
