Vice President Kwesi Amissah Arthur, has urged Ghanaians to vote against the disruptive change in the upcoming December 7 general elections.
Addressing hundreds of National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters at Kumbungu as part of his four-day tour of the Northern Region, the Vice President said there is no need changing a performing president like John Dramani Mahama.
He said such a change would be disruptive as it would take the country backward.
He disclosed that President Mahama has invested heavily in infrastructure particularly roads, schools, hospitals and provision of electricity.
Vice President Amissah Arthur said, with the solid foundation already in place, it is very imperative that President Mahama is given another term to build on the foundation and take Ghana to the promise land.
In the Northern Region, for instance, he pledged government's commitment to continue to expand its electrification project, construct more roads, schools and hospitals among many other social interventions.
He advised the electorates in the Kumbungu Constituency not to repeat the mistake of the 2013 by-elections where they voted for a Convention People's Party candidate to represent them in parliament.
This was after the NDC incumbent Member of Parliament (MP), Hon Mohammed Mumuni was appointed to head the African Caribbean Pacific countries in Brussels.
He said the NDC is being represented by Ras Mubarak, an indigene of the area whom he described as a development-oriented person and urged the electorates to vote for him.
"On December 7, when you go to the polls, vote for John Dramani Mahama as President and Ras Mubarak as your MP," he said.
The Vice President said "the NDC is going into this election with peace in our heart and development as our vision" imploring the supporters to be peaceful during the elections.
For his part, Naa Iddrisu Abu, the Chief of Kumbungu, commended the government for the unprecedented projects being carried out in the area.
"For the first time in 50 years, Kumbungu has seen tarred roads," he said.
