Former President John Dramani Mahama has said the newly-created regions would be given their fair share of development if the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) wins the 2020 general elections.
He noted that the NDC is a party that is known for promoting massive development across the country, and would not disappoint the people of the six new regions in terms of infrastructural development.
Mr Mahama said creating new regions would not guarantee automatic development in those areas, adding that it was important that Ghanaians vote for the NDC in the 2020 general elections so it can continue its infrastructural development.
Addressing delegates of the NDC in the Sefwi-Bekwai Constituency of the Western Region as he started his four-day campaign tour of the region, Mr Mahama said the NDC is known for developing the country and promised to develop the Western North Region, whose creation, he said, was supported by the NDC.
“I know that by God’s grace, it will be an NDC government that will bring the needed development to the Western North,” he said.
On the upcoming presidential primary of the NDC on 26 January 2019, Mr Mahama urged the delegates to endorse his candidature to enable him to bring the NDC back to power.
He expressed optimism that the NDC will return to power in the 2020 polls and urged the members to unite and work hard for victory.
For his part, the party’s Constituency Chairman at Sefwi-Wiawso, Mr Kwaku Shaibu, urged Mr Mahama not to be a father-for-all in the event that he wins the 2020 general elections, since, in his view, the Akufo-Addo government has been vindictive and, thus, must be paid back with its own coin.

I thought he was going to promise 14 more districts instead. To say you are going to creat 6 more was just an insult to the people who were before him. Can a civil servant who has taken his pension and gratuity come back to post? Hmmmmmmm!
Heheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheh!!!!!!! Dreaming? We the elecorate are waiting for Mahama. Mahama can never win elections again as President - He is a spent force.
You came to power in 2009 and you had the courage to tell Ghanaians in 2016 that you used 8 solid years to lay foundation when you had suceeded in restructuring your family and freinds pockets by sending the nation to IMF. They bail you out and you did not repent you continue with your restructuring of your freinds pockets by distributing V8 like toffees. You turn the whole country a comic country by appointing Akua Dontor your Economic advisor and hired Osofua from Nigeria as you development consultant. You were never serious. Agro wo waniso paaaa.
Please help me out, is former President Mahama campaigning to be elected by his party for Flagbearship or for the presidency now? I don't really get it. Was thinking by now he should be calling on his party to vote him into the flagbearship nod instead of calling for the second coming of the NDC
This Kanazoe ford bribe taker just say things to attract insults..... your party was against the creation of the regions. Greedy, incompetent, opportunist shamelless John Ford Mahama.
Your party does not support the creation of the New regions. The say it was RIGGED! You just put it into your manifesto to deceive Ghanaians to vote for you. NDC through Atukornor is saying one thing and you are saying another. CONFUSED Party. What happened to the One-Time-Premium your party promised! We are wise now. NEVER AGAIN!
