\u201cThe national headquarters is very much thankful to the Central Region for your great fight, especially those of you Members of Parliament\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know many of you have some questions, but I plead with you to be patient, continue to work and sacrifice for the Akufu Addo government in parliament, and I assure you that you won\u2019t be forgotten\u201d, the Acting Chairman added.<\/p>\n
