The Ghanaian Times reports that President J.A. Kufuor on Thursday received a tumultuous welcome at separate durbars at Cape Coast and Twifo Praso, as part of his two-day tour of the Central Region.
Thousands of people lined up the main streets of Cape Coast to welcome him, as he arrived at the Chapel Square here at exactly 1.15 pm, among them chiefs, heads of department, party members and activists, students and the general public.
Speaking at Ajumako, where the President also made a stop, he stated that the NPP government would always uphold the truth and be accountable to the people during its four-year term of office. He emphasized that “the government has no intention to corrupt the nation or deceive the ordinary Ghanaian, rather, to uphold the truth at all times.”
The President re-affirmed his determination to ensure a zero tolerance of corruption within his government and pledged to ensure that his officials give good account of themselves. He called for unity, love, peace and understanding among Ghanaians, and thanked the people for the confidence they had reposed in the party by voting it into office.
