President
John Dramani Mahama has admonished residents at Hohoe in the Volta
Region to give him four more years because he has executed his mandate
as President satisfactorily.
According to him, he deserves
another term because he has done only a term in office-a term which part
was taken by a court litigation yet the party[NDC] has performed so
well despite the challenges they encountered.
Speaking to a
charged crowd at Hohoe as part of his Accounting to the People's Tour,
President Mahama said, the constitution of the Republic of Ghana
mandates him to request for another term in office just like his
predecessors in the persons of Former Presidents Jerry John Rawlings,
and John Agyekum Kufour.
He posited that, his boss who he took
over from due to his untimely death, Prof. John Evans Atta Mills could
have equally being given an eight year mandate hence, Ghanaians should
give him that mandate to continue with his good works.
"I have
done one term in office, and part of that term was taken by court
litigation; And even then we have executed our mandate satisfactorily
and am certain that, Ghanaians will give me the second term to make
eight years (8) as required by the constitution."
A hopeful
President Mahama told the gathering that he was sure of victory come the
general elections. He also assured them of his commitment to transform
the region and Hohoe to be precise.
"I wish to assure you that
as I continue my mandate, and I know that the people of Ghana will renew
that mandate; by the time I leave office in 2021, we would have
transformed the area so it becomes a commercial centre to boost trading
and business activities."
President John Dramani Mahama urged the
people to believe in the country and continue to do their part to
ensure that Ghana continues to prosper.
He thanked the people for showing him love and coming in their numbers to partake in his tour.
"...All
of us should continue to do our good works and be dedicated to our
country and I assure you that Ghana is going to be a land of prosperity;
Ghana is a country that God has blessed and we should recognize the
blessings that he has bestowed on us and when we do that, he will bestow
more blessings on us," President Mahama said. |
