Takoradi, Jan. 20, GNA – The unsuccessful presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Nana Addo Danquah Akufo-Addo, has thanked the people of the Western Region for voting massively for the party in the 2008 general elections.
Briefing the press in Takoradi on Tuesday, he said it was appropriate for him and the party to say “Ayekoo” (thank you) to their supporters for the love and maturity they showed during the election. He added that although the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has won the election, the NPP was not worried and would work hard to defeat the NDC in 2012.
Nana Akufo-Addo said the task ahead enjoined all Ghanaians to work together and ensure the rapid development of the country.
“We need to develop our country and the NPP supporters and members must work to develop their parties and unite its members for the 2012. “We should not allow individuals and petty quarrels to divide the NPP but must strategise for the total victory of the party. “We still have massive support in the region and I will encourage the party supporters to still stand firm for the party and be focused,” he added. 20 Jan. 09
