The President of the Republic, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has stressed that by the end of his first term of office in 2020, his political opponents would have no campaign message going into the elections, as he would have fulfilled the promises he made to the Ghanaian people in run-up to the 2016 elections.
According to President Akufo-Addo, the same people who are saying his administration has done nothing over the last 16 months in office are the same persons who, prior to the 2016 elections, stated that free SHS was not possible, and described as lies the pledge to restore the nursing and teacher trainee allowances.
“One by one we are keeping our promises. Free SHS is now a reality. In September this year, the Free SHS policy will cover new entrants, in addition to those who will then be in SHS 2. By September 2019, it will cover all students in Senior High Schools across the country. Teacher and nursing trainees are also receiving their allowances. We have also retired a large chunk of the NHIS debt left by my predecessor, and the NHIS is working,” he said
The President continued, “To those who say they are still not seeing anything, they should wait and watch me. By the end of the four years, they will have nothing to say. They will acknowledge that we came to work for the development of Ghana.”
President Akufo-Addo made this known on Saturday, 19th May, 2018, when he visited the Asutifi South, Asutifi North, Asunafo North and Asunafo South constituencies, on day 2 of his 3-day tour of the Brong Ahafo Region.
As part of his tour, President Akufo-Addo cut the sod for the construction of an administrative block for the Asunafo South District Assembly; and inspected the newly constructed bridge for residents of Asumura in the Asunafo North constituency.
President Akufo-Addo also commissioned the newly constructed special ward at the St. Theresa’s Hospital at Hwidiem in Asutifi South; and inspected the 68-bed hospital and semi-detached maternity block, which is under construction at Kenyasi in the Asutifi North constituency.

You have already started toning down your language. You said borrowing was bad, now you are borrowing and Bawumia's wife is defending that for her husband; you said zero tolerance for corruption, now you are saying corruption has reduced under you. Reduced and zero tolerance are not the same. So you are likely to be be the one who would not have a message in 2020. Remember it is easier to be in opposition. I thought no one would go on strike under you but hey, strikes here and there. 2020 we are waiting
Mr. President, you just be tickling yourself, very soon,you will laughing from the wrong side of your mouth. You and your arm rober minsters/Deputy minsters and their CEO's plus their so called Special Assistance are already in opposition. Arm robber governement!!!
Mr President, you are deceiving yourself. You own people are saying your government is very corrupt. In fact, many of my friends and associates who voted for you have deeply regretted it. If Ghanaians are to vote today, surely you will lose. People are aware that when elections are closer, you will try to make things look good, but we know all these tricks by politicians. You and your party have failed miserably. Look at the number of ministers and deputy ministers, plus CEOs of the development authorities and their deputies you have appointed. Are you not milking the country? Who in Ghana now does not know that you deliberately inflate the contract sum of various projects and the contractors pay up to 40% back to the party. Who is not aware that the salaries of the various CEOs of government agencies have been inflated so they will pay part of it back to the party. When Hackman Owusu Agyeman hurriedly disclose the salary of Dr Opuni, has he come out to disclose that of the current CEO of COCOBOD? Is the current CEO taking something lower than what Opuni took? Obviously, we know he is taking higher but you have kept mute over that. My President, you are indeed a very vindictive person and by extension your party has copied you. Some Ghanaians are fed up with you you, and many other Ghanaians will follow suit soon. Tickle yourself and laugh. Your party will not remain in power forever.
this things u are doing
HOW CAN ONE PERSON BE COMMENTING UNDER DIFFERENT NAMES?LOOKING AT THE COMMENTS SO FAR I CAN SEE ONE PERSON UNDER DIFFERENT NAMES
So all you think about is your perceived opponents. Is this the same person we voted for? Have you forgotten us so soon?
You may think ndc alone is your opponent. You will have a shock of your life when a third party emerges and pull about 20% of npp votes leaving ndc cool chop victory. A lot of people in ashanti region where I live are visibly against your government. That is what you must worry about. Virtually all your votes come from ashanti and easten regions, so if these people become disgruntled even without message ndc can still win the 2020 elections hands down. Shop fuuuuling yourself.
Deceive and delude yourself. You will smell pepper in 2020.You will not have message in 202.0
hmmm.. Mr President, by the comments here things don't look too good.
we shall see man , yall played us with the bullshyyyt . aside all the bullshyyyyt eversince u became presido , enjoy while it last coz 2020 will be like a horror movie for npp.
