Former President John Agyekum Kufuor has urged the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) to spread its many achievements in order to continue being in power for many years.<\/p>\n
He was speaking \u00a0at the party\u2019s National Annual Delegates Conference at the Ghana International Trade Fair, La, Accra.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve come to the firm conclusion, over my very long service in politics to our nation and party, that Ghanaians naturally love our party\u201d, Mr Kufuor said, explaining: \u201cThey share in our vision of development in freedom, our respect for the private individual and enterprise; and our liberal democratic\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey know\u201d, Mr Kufuor added, \u201cThat it is our party that can bring the transformation that our nation yearns for\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur conduct, therefore, should make it easy for Ghanaians to continue loving us and to continually give us their mandate\u201d, the former President advised.<\/p>\n
According to him, \u201cSuccessive NPP governments are what will do the trick for Ghana\u2019s eventual entry into the ranks of the developed nations of the world\u201d.<\/p>\n
In Mr Kufuor\u2019s assessment, \u201cOur present government, under the able leadership of President Nana Akufo-Addo, is doing very well but we\u2019ve got to tell our story\u201d, noting: \u201cIf we do not trumpet our achievements \u2013 and there are many, very many \u2013 no one will tell them for us\u201d.<\/p>\n
Mr Kufuor warned: \u201cWe have had bitter lessons in the past to learn from on this score and we should not let this sad history repeat itself\u201d.<\/p>\n
He urged the members of the party to invest a lot of energy into spreading the good works of the government.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are called upon to have a missionary zeal in the work of governance, and, at the same time, spread the good news of the New Patriotic Party government.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we are able to do these, Ghanaians, I believe, will continue to reward us with multiple successive mandates\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
