Mrs Joyce Mogtari, Deputy Minister of Transport and Spokesperson for President Mahama’s Campaign, who made the call at a press conference in Accra, said the New Patriotic Party (NPP) only wanted a change, to discontinue all that the NDC government has achieved over the years for their selfish gain.

She cited the alleged plan by the Flag bearer of the NPP to move the capital city from Accra to Kyebi in the Eastern Region as one of such “dirty politics and lies” that the opposition was peddling and urged the public to ignore those deceits and rally behind the NDC for truth and development.

The Deputy Minister urged the public not to allow anybody, including the main opposition party, NPP to take away the shine of the good work of the government and the people of Ghana. “Despite the year-long challenges characterized by the Elections Petition, President Mahama managed to fulfil his campaign promises and that manifest in every community across the country, she said.

Mrs Mogtari said during their nation-wide campaign tours, President Mahama still stood tall and would win the elections massively to continue his good works. The campaign she said, focused on issues, achievement messages and peoples’ development devoid of violence, insults and attacks on opponents, as being the case of the NPP.

She said President Mahama is a man of peace and has promised Ghanaians to ensure peace before, during and after the elections and urged the public to trust him for his words and also try be tolerant and avoid discrimination irrespective of their political or religious affiliations.

“In the face of great provocations, the NDC continue to remain focus for the sake of peace of the country,” she said and urged the public to go and cast their ballot in safety and peace. “President Mahama has great commitment and passion for the country’s development and he is the symbol of respect for the sanctity of the ballot before, during and after the elections, he said.

The Deputy Minister said President Mahama’s unparrallel leadership quality is recognized both internationally and globally. She therefore, thanked the media for their support, cooperation and understanding throughout their campaign period and urged them to continue the good work during and after the elections.
