Parliamentary Candidate for Dome-Kwabenya Lawyer, Sarah Adwoa Safo has urged Muslims to take active part in the upcoming national biometric registration exercise.
She noted that the exercise which is tentatively slated for March this year is to enable them exercise their inalienable franchise as enshrined in universal adult suffrage of our constitution.
This would give them the mandate to determine who they want their destinies to be entrusted in the next four years.
The NPP Parliamentary candidate said the exercise is so paramount and crucial to every Ghanaian who has attained the voting age and therefore eligible to vote, explaining that they must be given all the needed education to register and vote in this year’s general elections.
Adwoa Safo made these remarks when she joined the Dome Pillar Two Mosque to worship and to also formally introduce herself to the Muslim community.
Ms. Safoa decried how people are waging propaganda by spreading falsehood and misleading people into thinking that the exercise is cancerous and that people should not take part in it.
“Biometric registration is not cancerous as being peddled by some propaganda pundits who have the strongest believe that any free and fair elections will not go in their favour and therefore have taken to these kind of gimmicks to distort the minds of the people from taking part in this national exercise”.
The biometric registration and the verification has for some time now engaged media discussion as there is consensus that it is the only viable means by which one could be very certain that free and fair elections could be conducted.
The Dome-Kwabenya NPP parliamentary candidate did not mince words about corruption of gargantuan proportion that has scandalized the so called Professor of integrity’s government, and asked Ghanaians to be wise like the proverbial snake so they could see through the gentlemanly gait of President Attah Mills, “as the most deadly hypocrite of our time”.
She told the teaming crowd who listened to her with rapt attention visibly soaking the message that Nana Addo Danquah Akufo Addo has carefully developed a programme of action that will move Ghana from a raw material producing country, to an industrialized country and this she believed will affect every Ghanaian positively.
Adwoa Safo noted that, Nana Addo’s resolve to make second cycle education free will not be a mirage.
The Chief Imam of the mosque Sheik Mohamed Suleiman congratulated Adwoa Safo for winning the primaries to represent the NPP in the constituency for the upcoming general elections.
He assured her his unflinching support for the worthy course she has taken and prayed to God that she wins the elections. Adwoa Safo gave an unspecified cash donation to the community.
