The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr Kwadwo Owusu-Afriyie, has appealed to supporters to put in more effort and make the needed sacrifices to bring the party back to power. They should go from house-to-house to educate voters on the party�s manifesto to win them over and assure the NPP of resounding electoral victory on December 7. He said every member and supporter of the party must accept to share in the job of assisting the people to make the right election decisions and choices. Mr Owusu-Afriyie said �the inept, non-performing ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) must be voted down� to restore hope and confidence to the nation. He was launching the party�s campaign in the New Edubiase Constituency at a rally at New Edubiase. He cautioned against complacency, adding that they need to be alert to expose the evil agenda, convenient lies and deception by the NDC. Mr Owusu-Afriyie also underlined the need for them to stand together and refuse to allow their ranks to be divided. �Let us close our ranks and resolve not to bite ourselves.� The Ashanti Regional Chairman, Mr Fredrick Fredua Anto, said a government of the NPP would ensure fairness and equity in the distribution of the nation�s resources. The Constituency Chairman, Mr Prince Anfo Boahen, counseled tolerance and restraint even in the face of provocation by their political opponents. He called for clean and decent electioneering campaign devoid of insults and vulgar language. The party�s parliamentary candidate for the area, Mr Charles Cann, vowed to win the seat that has been held by the NDC since 1992. �Things would change this time round�, he said, drawing cheers from the frenzied party supporters.
