Two Agona Chiefs condemn vain promises of politicians
Agona Kwanyako (C/R), May 20, GNA – Two Divisional
Chiefs of the Agona Nyakrom Traditional Council
have advised politicians to avoid making promises
that would be difficult to fulfill.

They said it is very disturbing and disheartening
after politicians fail to honour promises,
especially those involved the improvement of their
living condition.

Nana Ampim Darko V, Chief of Agona Kwanyako and
Nana Kobina Botwe II, Adontenhene of the council,
gave the advice when Dr Paa Kwesi Nduom,
Presidential candidate of Progressive Peoples
Party, paid separate courtesy calls on them at
their palaces in Agona Swedru and Kwanyako
respectively.

They chiefs slammed politicians for such
unfortunate behaviours and appealed to them to end
them to enable the people develop their confidence
in them.

Nana Darko said the people do not know what is
“political talk”, “adding that time has come for
politicians to bite what they can swallow in order
not to deceive Ghanaians”.

The tour of Agona West and East formed part of
second tour of Dr Nduom in the Central Region
within three weeks.

Nana Darko cautioned supporters of PPP not to
engage in any acts that could spark of violence in
the coming election and urged Dr Nduom to revisit
the idea of establishment of the workers brigade
to increase food production when given the nod.

Nana Botwe, Swedruhene expressed concern about
poor road networks in the Agona West Municipality
especially Agona Swedru saying that roads under
construction in the town have been abandoned.

Dr Nduom called on Ghanaians to vote PPP for him
to improve economic and social well-being of the
people adding that education, water sanitation,
health and road construction would be top
priorities when given him the nod.

The Presidential candidate said job creation would
also be one of the cardinal points since many
Ghanaians youth especially unemployed graduates to
reduce poverty and hardship.
