The New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential nominee for the 2016 December polls, Nana Akufo-Addo, has said he is prepared to beg Ghanaians to make him president if that is what he needs to do save the country from decline.<\/p>\n

Nana Addo noted that, he sees nothing wrong with begging to serve as President despite criticisms by his opponents.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m prepared to beg the people of Ghana to be president, if that is what is required to be done,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”jxoYUr8vrNZnGQ5mOYhsn0g57UziGPcr”]Speaking at a rally in Wa in the Upper West Region as part of his campaign tour, Nana Addo urged Ghanaians to vote out the Mahama administration for a more competent government to take over.<\/p>\n

Nana Addo said some have argued that when \u201cyou say try me that means you are going to experiment; but the experience of the person who is there now, has been a disastrous experience for our country so what is the purpose of continuity?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAre we going to continue the disaster? Is that the right thing to do? We want to get rid of the disaster and bring in a new man with fresh ideas and a fresh direction for our nation. That is what we want to do,\u201d the NPP flagbearer added.<\/p>\n

Audacious campaign promises<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nana Addo, who is currently on a campaign trail, has been to five regions telling them about some social intervention policies he intends to implement when given the chance in the December 7 general elections.<\/p>\n

Some of the programmes he has promised includes; one-factory; one district, one village; one dam; and one million each year for the 275 constituencies in the country.<\/p>\n
