Deputy Attorney General Godfred Yeboah Dame has presented 37 motorcycles and 21 sewing machines to eight constituencies to support the campaign efforts of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) to retain President Akufo-Addo in office.
The beneficiary constituencies included Ayawaso West Wuogon and Bortianor-Ngleshie-Amanfro in the Greater Accra Region; Wenchi in the Bono Region; Akyem Swedru and Ofoase-Ayirebi in the Eastern Region; Tempane in the Upper East Region; and Evalue-Gwira and Elembelle in the Western Region.
The Deputy Attorney General presented the items to NPP National Chairman, Freddie W. Blay, in Accra for onward distribution to the constituencies.
“This is my little contribution to help propagate the good works of President Akufo-Addo to the country. Even as a member of the government, I am amazed at the performance of the President across all sectors. From education, through railways, agriculture, manufacturing, the handling of the economy in the wake of the global Covid-19 pandemic, the President’s leadership and execution have been par with excellence,” Mr. Dame said.
“People need to hear the message of the NPP across the country. I see the motorbikes as the vehicle that will literally carry the NPP’s message to every nook and cranny of the country to spread the good word about President Akufo-Addo. The sewing machines are a donation from my wife, Dr. Joycelyn Dame, and they are intended to assist the hardworking women around the country who are appreciative of the President’s efforts in poverty alleviation among women in Ghana,” he said.
“I have been making similar humble contributions to the party over the years and I am extremely proud that Ghanaians have seen the powerful force of progress that the NPP represents, and give the President four more to do more,” the Deputy Attorney General said.
Accepting the donation, Mr. Blay described him as “brilliant but humble Dame” who has shown commitment to the party.
“Godfred Yeboah Dame is a true party man. He has been doing a lot for the party behind closed door. I am a witness to his benevolence towards the party since I became part of the leadership. He believes so much in the NPP and what we represent. You see, the government has done an incredible job. We must be able to show what we have done to every household.”
