Assin South NPP: MP Collapsing Party with meter issues

Assin South NPP: MP Collapsing Party with meter issues.

The Assin South Deputy Secretary for New Patriotic Party Robert Oppong Amoateng has unveiled that, the Assin south NPP is likely to suffer defeat if care is not taken come 2020 election. He said the people no longer believes in the leadership of the party at the constituency level.


According to the Deputy secretary, the most threatening factor among others is the provision of meters. The people have paid Gh 100 for the ECG/ PDS meters as promised by our Member of Parliament Hon. Rev John Ntim Fordjour for two years now. He added that, the constituents have only been subjected to lies, deceit and disappointment from their lawmaker. Sadly, timelines has been given over and over as to when the meters would be ready but to no avail, The people were promised to have the meters before Dec. 2018, In Dec. 2018, they were reassured that by March 2019….. We are now in May.


Mr. Amoateng said,they can’t continue like that because they are giving out an effective political weapon to our opponent.


He therefore promised that, he will not sit unconcerned for the party to be humiliated during 2020 elections. The seat we see today was battled for by our elders and therefore there is the need for us to protect it, he added.


He stated emphatically that, he can no longer go to his hometown because of threat from people demanding their money .He warned that, if concrete measures are not taken immediately to address this issue, he will advice himself.(I will seek for a loan to pay off).


The idea behind provision of ECG/ PDS meters to the people is good, but why should it take such a longer time after the payment, he quizzed


 The Deputy Secretary said, he don’t intend to undermine the integrity of anybody but the truth must be told. Assin south NPP is likely to lose the parliamentary seat.

NPP And NDC Playing "Chaskele" With EC... Rev Dr Worlanyo Mensah

  NPP And NDC Playing "Chaskele"  With EC... Rev Dr Worlanyo Mensah Tensions between Ghana's Electoral Commission (EC), National Democratic Congress (NDC), and New Patriotic Party (NPP) have escalated over alleged discrepancies in the 2024 voter register. Rev Dr Samuel Worlanyo Mensah, vice presidential candidate for the All People's Congress (APC), economist and a lecture at Wisconsin university Accra, has warned that the NDC and NPP's actions during the limited voter registration and special transfer of vote exercise have compromised the register's integrity. "The two major parties were bussing people from their homes to registration centers, encouraging minors and foreigners to register," Dr. Worlanyo alleged. The NDC recently raised concerns upon receiving the provisional voters register, citing bloated electoral rolls in certain polling stations and alleged attempts by the EC to rig the December 7 polls in favor of the governing NPP. In res...

NPP Government Shortchanges Cocoa Farmers: A Closer Look at the Discrepancies....Twifo Atti-Morkwa NDC Communication Officer.

NPP Government Shortchanges Cocoa Farmers: A Closer Look at the Discrepancies.... Twifo Atti-Morkwa NDC Communication Officer. In recent years, Ghana's cocoa farmers have faced significant disparities in the payments they receive for their hard work. A comparison of current cocoa pricing practices under the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government with those from the era of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) highlights a troubling trend: farmers are being shortchanged, while the government profits disproportionately. As of today, the global market price for cocoa stands at $6,470 per ton. With an exchange rate of Ghc 16.35 to $1, this translates to Ghc 105,784.50 per ton in Ghanaian cedis. Given that one ton comprises 16 bags, this sets the price per bag at Ghc 6,611.00. However, the current government pays cocoa farmers only Ghc 3,000 per ton—just 45.39% of the total price—retaining the remaining 54.61%, or Ghc 3,609.52 per ton. In stark contrast, under the NDC government led by J...

Galamsey Fight: Government Must Tread Carefully to Avoid Judgement Debt -- Rev Dr. Worlanyo Mensah

  Galamsey Fight: Government Must Tread Carefully to Avoid Judgement Debt -- Rev Dr. Worlanyo Mensah The Vice Presidential Candidate of the All Peoples Congress (APC) and renowned economist, Rev Dr. Worlanyo Mensah, has cautioned the government to exercise restraint in addressing illegal mining activities, popularly known as "galamsey." Dr. Mensah warned that hasty actions, driven by calls from Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), could lead to substantial judgement debts. "Many Ghanaians are advocating for drastic measures, including 'shoot and kill' operations and burning excavators at galamsey sites, under the guise of executive directives, which lack legal backing," Dr. Mensah said. While acknowledging the need to stop illegal mining, Dr. Mensah emphasized that such actions must be grounded in law to achieve their intended purpose. "The government must not forget that foreign and local mining firms with prospective mining licenses from the Ministry o...
