My
campaign will be devoid of insults- Nduom
Kumasi, Dec.22, Ghanadot/GNA - Dr. Paa Kwesi Nduom,
Presidential Candidate of the Convention People’s Party (CPP),
has said he will exhibit a high sense of discipline decency
and maturity in his campaign to be elected as president in
the 2008 elections.
“My campaign will be devoid of insults and disrespect for
opponents”, he stated and that he was determined to win next
year’s elections based on issues.
Dr. Nduom was addressing a forum, of the CPP youth in the
Ashanti Region in Kumasi at the week-end.
The forum, among others, was to afford the presidential
candidate the opportunity to enlighten the youth on his
vision and plans for the CPP and the nation in general.
He said it was unfortunate that after the overthrow of the
CPP in 1966, the nation had continued to find herself in all
sorts of economic crisis due to coherent programmes and
socio-economic policies by successive governments.
The overthrow of the CPP, he said, marked the beginning of
Ghana’s journey towards poverty, high rate of illiteracy and
ignorance, hunger, tribalism
and general pessimism among the citizenry.
Dr. Nduom observed that, “because the nation had lost focus
of what we actually wanted to do with our freedom from
colonial rule we have been compelled to
go back to the international community to beg for almost
everything for our survival”.
He promised to revive all defunct state enterprises to make
them vibrant in employing the Ghanaian youth if he was
elected as the next President.
The Presidential Candidate further affirmed his resolve to
institute effective programmes and development plans that
would harness the potential and talents inherent in the
youth for the nation’s benefit.
Dr. Nduom stated that he would also make science and
technology a crucial component of the nation’s educational
development to make it possible for the nation to utilize
her national resources to ensure self-sustenance.
