The Member of Parliament for the Ketu South Constituency, Dzifa Gomashie has urged Ghanaians to vote for the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, in the pending elections.
According to her, the Akufo-Addo-led administration has brought untoward hardship on Ghanaians.
She said despite the Planting for Food and Jobs programme implemented by the NPP government to increase food production, ensure food security, and reduce food importation, food prices continue to escalate.
In a post shared on her Facebook page on Saturday, August 10, 2024, she appealed to the party executives in her constituency to remind first-time voters to do a simple comparison of what the NDC offered and what the current alternative has brought Ghanaians.
“I have been in my constituency meeting my heroes and ‘sheroes’ in the 5 zones. The branch executive members have assured me that come rain or shine they are with me and the PREMIER, H.E. JDM.
‘I reminded them to tell the first time voters that in
2016 when we didn’t have PLANTING FOR FOOD AND JOBS, one olonka of gari used to GHS5.00 now it is GHS30.00, one bucket of fresh tomatoes used to be GHS8.00 now it is sold at GHS120.00.
‘One broiler was GHS45.00 now it is GHS220. One crate of eggs used to be GHS12.00 now it is GHS70.00. One 5kg Gino Rice was GHS25.00 now it is GHS165.00, 5kg Lele Rice was GHS18.00 now it is GHS125.00 and one Cindy Rice was GHS 10.00 now it is GHS100,’ she stated.
She said party executives in her constituency are gearing up to support the party’s campaign to ensure a successful outcome in the pending elections.
“They are ready to assist ADG and JM to RESET!” she noted.
