What do you believe is the single most important factor driving up the cost of living in Nigeria?

Ho, Aug 24, GNA – The Volta Regional Secretariat of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has accused former President John Dramani Mahama, Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), of campaigning on falsehood rather than on records.

At a press conference addressed by Mr Makafui Kofi Woanya, the Regional Chairman, he said during Mr Mahama’s four-day campaign tour to the region last week, he failed to demonstrate solid proof and facts for his statements.

He cited former President Mahama as saying that the NPP was gaining grounds in the region due to propaganda and distribution of monies to voters, the reason the party garnered 14 per cent of votes in the 2020 general election, when it was recording single digits during the late Jerry John Rawlings’s era.

Mr Woanya said he considered the statement as an insult to the people of the Volta Region, referencing that Voltarians should be in servitude and not identify themselves with good and tangible life-changing development projects.
