Nana Akufo Addo, flagbearer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), says Ghanaians should expect several\u00a0attempts by President Mahama to \u2018buy their votes with goodies\u2019 ahead of the December polls.<\/p>\n
The leader of the party, who was addressing a rally in the Weija-Gbawe constituency in Accra over the weekend, said Ghanaians are no longer interested in the politics of deceit being perpetuated by the NDC.<\/p>\n
\u201cPresident Mahama went to the Volta Region and told the people that he had given an order two months to the election, that nursing trainee allowances with immediate effect should be paid. Is this how a country is governed? With just two months to an election, he now sees the wisdom in restoring these allowances,\u201d Nana Addo said.<\/p>\n
He added that, \u201cas election draws closer, expect more goodies from this government, we are going to see this and that. They are going to spend a lot of money on freebies in a way to convince you to vote for them.\u201d<\/p>\n
The flagbearer accused the governing NDC of badly managing the country’s\u00a0economy, and thereby leaving many Ghanaians in\u00a0hardship.<\/p>\n
He also said the government has failed to create jobs for the several thousands of unemployed youth in the country.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \u2018<\/strong>Ignore Mahama\u2019s vote buying propaganda\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n The Western Regional branch of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) earlier this year, also accused President Mahama of \u201cspewing lies and throwing dust into the eyes of fisher-folk\u201d in the Western Region for political expediency.<\/p>\n The party said the President while on his accounting to the people tour in the region, made false promises and did some presentations to the people to win their votes.
