Don’t Repeat the Past: Change Your Vote Pattern for Progress–Finance to Upper East Region
In a passionate appeal, Finance Minister Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam urged the people of the Upper East Region to reassess their voting pattern in the upcoming election and support the New Patriotic Party (NPP). Apexnewsgh reports Speaking at the Jubilee Park in Bolgatanga Central, Dr. Amin Adam emphasized that despite the region’s unwavering loyalty to the National Democratic Congress (NDC), it has not seen the desired level of development. Dr. Amin Adam pointed out that the Upper East Region has historically received its fair share of development under NPP administrations, despite not voting in large numbers for the party. He expressed regret that the region has not been fair to the NPP, which has brought tangible development, while continuing to support the NDC, which he claims has led to poverty and underdevelopment. Dr. Amin Adam highlighted several key initiatives under the NPP government, including the Free SHS policy, improvements to the National Health Insurance Scheme, the One Village One Dam initiative, the One District One Factory program, and the distribution of free laptops to Senior High School students. He argued that these policies have directly benefited the people of the Upper East Region and should be a compelling reason to vote for the NPP. Dr. Amin Adam’s message was clear: it’s time for the people of the Upper East Region to recognize the NPP’s contributions and vote for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as president, rejecting the NDC and its candidate, John Mahama. He emphasized that the region has consistently given its votes to Mahama, despite his poor performance, and urged the people to change their voting pattern this year. As Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia concluded his constituency-focused campaign in the North, Dr. Amin Adam’s words resonated with the crowd. The people of the Upper East Region have a crucial decision to make in the upcoming election, and Dr. Amin Adam’s appeal may just be the catalyst for change. Will the region continue its loyalty to the NDC, or will it embrace the NPP’s promise of development and progress? Only time will tell.
