The National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, says the Ashanti Region has seen no development under the Akufo-Addo
administration despite voting massively for him in the 2016 general elections.
He said the sad and painful aspect of the situation is that the President has also refused to
complete various developmental projects that the Mahama administration started in the
region.
Addressing NDC supporters at Bosomkyekye in the Mampong constituency on Saturday,
during NDC Presidential Candidate John Mahama’s tour of the Ashanti Region, Mr Ofosu Ampofo said instead of the President building development projects, he has specialised in re-naming projects that his government inherited from past administrations.
“Build your own projects and name them and stop re-naming the ones you didn’t build”, Mr
Ofosu-Ampofo said.
The NDC’s National Chairman said his party has kept good faith with the Ashanti Region in
terms of development projects, including the construction of the Kejetia market, various
hospital projects, schools and the Barekese Water Expansion Projects, among others.
Mr Ofosu-Ampofo assured the people that Mr John Dramani Mahama will continue all
abandoned projects in the Ashanti Region and will work hard to provide decent and
sustainable jobs.
He said Mr Mahama is also committed to protecting the thousands of jobs
in the local automotive industry, including those in Suame Magazine, Abossey Okai,
Kokompe and others.
Chairman Ofosu-Ampofo said unlike President Akufo-Addo, Mr Mahama is a trust-worthy
leader who will not waste state resources.
