Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, the 2016 presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party, has stated that no ethnic group in Ghana will be marginalized under his government, should Ghanaians give him the mandate in January 2017.<\/p>\n
According to him, all Ghanaians, regardless of where they hail from, will have a pride of place in Ghana, as development, and the improvement of living standards for all will be the main focus of his government.<\/p>\n
[contextly_sidebar id=”34q3i8rZXZq7oiq1amiZdqiueMDjnPBW”]Receiving a delegation from the Binduri constituency on Monday, June 29, led by the newly elected parliamentary candidate, Abanga Abdullahi, who told the NPP flagbearer about a vicious campaign being waged by opponents of the NPP that Kussasi settlers in the South will be sent to the North when an NPP government takes over in 2016.<\/p>\n
In response, Nana Addo said \u201cthe NPP is not on any tribal agenda and has no tribal agenda. Every single group will be secure in Ghana. We are One Ghana and I am totally committed to working to ensure peace and unity for the Ghana project.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added; \u201cwhether you are a Fante, Ga, Ewe, Akan, Kussasi, Mamprusi, Bimoba or whatever ethnic group you belong to, Ghana belongs to all of us. No ethnic group will be marginalised under Akufo-Addo, and the track record of the NPP in this regard speaks for itself.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nana Akufo-Addo recalled the same propaganda was used against the NPP in the run-up to the 2000 elections.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the end it was all lies. President Kufuor oversaw one of the biggest transformations of Ghana in all parts of the country. No ethnic group was marginalised and I can assure all Ghanaians that, under an Akufo-Addo government, no ethnic group will be slighted in anyway whatsoever,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
