Nana Addo@PeaceFM: You Can�t Have A Better Asset In A Country Than An Educated People

Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Addo Danquah Akufo Addo, has once again reiterated his commitment to introduce free education at the Senior High School level saying it is only the faint-hearted who assume that the policy is not doable. Nana Addo reiterated his pledge when he visited the studios of Peace FM at Ship House, Abeka Junction, on Thursday September 6, 2012, as part of his campaign tour of the Ayawaso-West Wuogon Constituency of the Greater Accra region. The visit formed part of his nationwide tour to �Restore Hope� and seek the mandate of Ghanaians in the December 7 parliamentary and presidential elections. The NPP Presidential Candidate, who pulled in during the airing of PeaceFM�s Working Time programme, again touted his signature policy proposal in a brief interview with Kofi Kum Bilson saying there is no better asset a country can have than an educated populace and would strive to ensure the success of the policy. He wondered why the policy cannot be possible if poorer countries are even implementing it. �It is very very feasible; timid hearts and faints hearts are those who can�t see the possibility of it. They can�t see farther than the ends of their nose. There are countries poorer than us and they are doing it. You cannot have a better asset in a country than an educated people. I am very clear in my mind that we can do and it is important that we do something like that for this country�,� he said. The NPP flagbearer was accompanied by the party�s Parliamentary Candidate for Ayawaso West-Wuogon, Emmanuel Agyarko; former NPP National Organiser, Lord Commey; Press Aide to Nana Addo, Herbert Krapa; MP for Okere, Dan Botwe; Parliamentary Aspirant for Ablekuma South, Ursula Owusu; Member of NPP�s Communications Team, Titus Glover; out-going MP for Ayawaso West-Wuogon, Frema Opare and Samuel Abu Jinapor.
