Campaign groups, including the operation group, IT group, and many others, were launched in to embark on a massive campaign by visiting houses, institutions and organizations ahead of the December polls.
Speaking at the mini-rally, Ms Osei-Asare, who is also a Minister of State at the Finance Ministry, indicated that the campaign members would carry out their activities peacefully in the constituency.
Appeal
She appealed to the constituents to vote massively for the NPP in the forthcoming general elections. This, she noted, would enable the party to continue improving upon the developmental agenda of Ghana.
She bemoaned that the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war had exposed fundamental structural weaknesses in the economy, adding that President Akufo-Addo and his capable government had dealt with the difficult situation.
She further said Dr. Bawumia had promised to continue all the good policies initiated and implemented by the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo government, pointing especially, to the Free SHS.
She added that the many infrastructural projects commenced by the Akufo-Addo government would be continued and completed under Dr. Bawumia, while other life-changing social intervention policies initiated would also be protected to bring relief to the citizenry.
NPP achievement
Touching on the achievements of the NPP flagbearer, Ms. Osei-Asare said Dr. Bawumia had discharged the duties imposed on him as Vice-President creditably.
“Dr. Bawumia, as Vice-President, superintended over the digitalization of the country, resulting in a ‘No Guarantor’ system for student loan applications, the introduction of a medical drone delivery system, digitizing the operations of the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA), helping to reduce fraudulent claims, and eliminating bottlenecks associated with the enrollment and renewal of National Health Insurance membership, thus increasing access to healthcare for those who need the services most, among other feats,” she mentioned.
She indicated that the vision of Dr. Bawumia, which had made life comfortable for Ghanaians, would be brought to bear under his presidency to transform Ghana.
