Nduom gives Gh¢60k to Catholic Church
The flagbearer of the Progressive People’s Party
(PPP) Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom has given Gh¢60, 000
to the Catholic Church in Ghana.

A Catholic himself, the business magnate said the
donation is part of his contribution towards the
church’s centenary celebrations, especially as
members and the leaders prayed for him during his
trying moments with the Electoral Commission which
almost cost him his presidential bid.

The president of Groupe Nduom gave out Gh¢10,000
instantly at the St. Edward Catholic Church at
Jukwa in the Central region as part of his
campaign. He has promised to fulfill the remainder
on his birthday which falls on February 15.

Reward Nduom with your votes
Meanwhile, the National Chairman of the PPP Nii
Alottey Brew-Hammond is asking the people of the
Central region to vote massively for Nduom in the
December polls.

According to him, Nana Akufo-Addo and John Mahama
have proven over the years that they have nothing
better to offer Ghanaians.

Mr. Hammond was speaking at the party’s Central
regional rally held at Mankessim on Saturday, 12
November 2016 under the theme: “Adze papa wo fie
a oye.”

The rally brought the entire Mankessim township to
a halt as thousands of supporters gathered to
listen to the message of the PPP.

He urged the region to judge Dr. Nduom by his
competence and job creation track record and not
the mere fact that he is from the region as others
have sought to do in the past.

“We need thinkers and job creators to occupy the
Flagstaff House. As we all can see young people
from this region are leaving to seek greener
pastures elsewhere because of the lack of jobs
coupled with deteriorating living conditions.
Reward Nduom with your votes because he did not
earn the Edwumawura accolade by just sitting
down,” he said.

The PPP chairman took a swipe at the New Patriotic
Party’s (NPP) flagbearer, Nana Akufo-Addo, for
constantly saying he is going to the Jubilee House
should he win the December elections.

“There's no such thing as the Jubilee House; we
have the Flagstaff House so he doesn't know where
he wants to go.”

For his part, Dr. Nduom, thanked the people of the
region for their unflinching support during his
tango with the Electoral Commission (EC).

“You have showed that we are bold,” he said.

He, however, decried the state of the region
saying that it is the fourth poorest region in
Ghana despite the role it has played in the
history of Ghana.

“If you continue to follow the NDC and NPP then
you don't love yourself. Teachers posted to teach
in parts of Ghana some years ago were from this
region but today our people do not even go to
school. I wonder why in today's world cholera will
break out in Cape Coast. A new hope for Ghana
coming and it's coming from the Central region,”
he told the thousands of party supporters.
