Vice president Mahamudu Bawumia says the Akufo-Addo-led government has by far cared for the interest of deprived communities than any other government in recent history.
Speaking at a virtual Eid prayer at the forecourt of GBC Friday, Dr Bawumia cited the Zongo Development Fund and the Inner-city and Zongo ministry already yielding human and infrastructural development in zongo communities.
He further outlined the many interventions the administration has implemented in the inner cities including scholarships for brilliant but needy students from deprived communities to study Medicine, as some human- changing policies that are having real impact on lives that would otherwise being neglected.
He pledged the administration if given a second term, would do more including the building of 16 model SHS in the zongos to further develop the human capital in those areas.
