President John Evans Atta Mills has been commended for nominating Mr. Azong Alhassan, People's National Convention (PNC), Member of Parliament (MP) for Builsa South for appointment as minister at the Presidency. A statement signed by Mr. Henry Fatchu, Upper East Regional Secretary of PNC, appealed to the President to appoint more competent PNC members to responsible positions in his government to enable them to contribute to national development. It expressed optimism that Mr. Alhassan, a versatile person, would work hard to justify the confidence reposed in him by President Mills and the National Democratic Congress (NDC). The statement requested the Appointments Committee of Parliament to give Mr. Alhassan the nod to enable him to bring to bear his experience on President Mills' Administration. Source: GNA
