The Northern Youth for Nana Akufo-Addo (NOYONAA) says Ghanaians are discerning enough to differentiate between the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) feats and other political regimes.
The group said the claim of the NDC that President Akufo-Addo and the NPP had executed only 14% of its promises was untrue and misleading.
A statement signed by Abukari Ubaidullah, NOYONAA Northern Regional Coordinator said President Akufo-Addo’s achievements were unmatched.
It noted the reduction of unemployment from 11.9% in 2015 to 7.3% in 2019, according to the Ghana Living Standards Survey and that if this reduction was at 14 per cent performance, then-President Akufo-Addo deserved another four more years to reduce unemployment further.
On education, the statement said the Free Senior High School programme introduced by the president had won him international recognition, free registration for West African Senior Secondary Certificate Examination and the Basic Education Certificate Examination Candidates and the restoration of the Teacher Trainee Allowances.
The statement said the Planting for Food and Jobs under the Ministry of Food and Agriculture registered 1.1 million farmers who got access to a 703,000 metric tons of fertilizer.
"Also the food safety and security programme under the National Food Buffer Stock and the distribution of seeds and supply of fertilizer to farmers".
It said on health, 307 ambulances were distributed to each constituency to facilitate the movement of patients from one destination to another and the restoration of the Nurses Trainee Allowance.
The statement said president Akufo-Addo declared 2020 as the year of roads of which the Northern Regional Capital, Tamale, was getting an Interchange to ease congestion in its town centre, the Pokuase interchange and the town roads across the country.
It said the peaceful manner in which the funerals of the two former Ya-Naas and the subsequent enskinment of the new Ya-Naa was a core promised fulfilled.
“This core promise has killed a major campaign message of the opposition party and the good people of Dagbon hail you for such singular leadership and love demonstrated for us.
"One-District-One-Factory, the Nations Builders Corps, One-Village-One-Dam, the $1million-One Constituency and National Identification Cards".
On Energy, the statement said dumsor was now a thing of the past and the Petroleum sector improved on a daily basis.
It said President Akufo-Addo and the NPP had shown the difference between competence and incompetence and had proved that the black man was indeed capable of managing his own affairs not IMF.
The statement said, "it is normal to get a low mark when your examiner knows nothing about the subject matter. The NDC does not have any message for Ghanaians and resorts to fight any programme from President Akufo-Addo’s leadership."
NOYONAA congratulated President Akufo-Addo on his spectacular performance in lifting the image of Ghana and the standards of the citizenry.
It said the promises made by President Akufo-Addo during his campaign prior to the 2016 elections attracted lots of criticism from the NDC who said it was not achievable anytime soon, "today they are praising him for a 14 per cent work done, this means you will do more when you get four more years."
"The track record of the NDC shows that anytime they say something they mean the exact opposite to what they say. A political party which after 2016 declared that they were in a comfortable lead before results were declared by the Electoral commission and when it was eventually declared they recorded the heaviest defeat ever in their political history.
