Running mate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has urged nursing students to vote massively for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the upcoming elections.
He posited that their votes are crucial to protecting key policies like Agenda 111, the nationwide hospital project, and the nursing training allowance.
The former Energy Minister said this while addressing students at the Pantan Nursing and Midwifery Training College in Accra.
He also asked them not to vote for former President John Dramani Mahama, warning that a return of Mahama will have several policies of Akufo-Addo cancelled.
According to him, the restoration of trainee allowances by the NPP demonstrates their commitment to nursing students’ welfare.
He indicated that the general elections are a choice between the stability offered by the NPP’s policies and the risks posed by Mahama’s leadership.
“Like their colleagues at Korle Bu, they recognize the risk in returning to the leadership of a man who once cancelled their allowances and vowed not to restore them, even if it cost him the presidency.
“The 2024 elections, they believe, are about securing Ghana’s future. That is why they will place their trust in Dr. Bawumia, who will, after four years, return to account for his actions and decisions. In contrast, they fear a leader who will serve only four years and be free from accountability, could once again cut their allowances and impose harsher policies. These students are actively campaigning and he believes it will translate into votes for the NPP on December 7.”
