The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Parliamentary Candidate for Sege, Divine Agorhom has called for the institution of a national development policy that will guide governments to execute the development agenda of the country. Mr. Agorhom described as unacceptable, the situation where political parties campaign on their manifesto promises and end up abandoning projects which had been started by their predecessors. “Currently, we run a system where our political parties set their own exams, write the exams, mark the exams and release the results; definitely this is a recipe for mediocrity and trading of excuses,” he lamented. The Parliamentary candidate made the call in an interview with Adom News at the launch of his campaign to attempt to claim the seat from the NDC. Mr. Alfred Abayateye currently holds the seat for the ruling government but he will not be contesting on the party’s ticket as he lost the bid to Christian Otuteye during the primaries. Meanwhile, Mr. Agohrom is suggesting that chiefs be allowed to actively participate in politics but they must be given specific roles to play. “This will be beneficial in that, the chieftaincy institution will regain its respect and influence. We can also be sure that our chiefs will be in a better position to protect our resources for us,” he said.
