NDC victory heralds rapid development for Volta — Agbavitor

The Volta Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mawutor Agbavitor, has said the decisive victory for the party in the 2024 general election heralds an era of viable and rapid development projects in the area.

“The NDC will never depart from its promises to bring progress to the region and relieve the people of the hardships they suffered over the past eight years,” he said.

Mr Agbavitor said that at a mini victory rally at the forecourt of the NDC Volta Regional headquarters in Ho yesterday.

He thanked the electorate for voting for change, saying the large figures the NDC garnered in all the 18 constituencies testified to the people’s strong desire for a change for the better.

“We have sterling development plans to lift the region to greater development heights and create jobs for the teeming youth,” Mr Agbavitor added.

He mentioned the construction of the Ho-Denu Road, the Keta Sea Port project in partnership with the private sector, a modern market in Aflao, as well as the operation of commercial flights at the Ho Airport as priority areas of the NDC’s development plan for the region.

Appreciation

Mr Agbavitor thanked the party’s council of elders, chiefs and queens for the good guidance which saw the NDC through to victory, and the youth for the massive and unshakable loyalty to the party.

“We also appreciate the role of our religious leaders and foot soldiers for their directions to the right steps, which led us to victory,” the NDC regional chairman said.

Meanwhile, Mr Agbavitor said it was gratifying the Hohoe Constituency seat had returned to the NDC, adding the seat would never return to the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

He urged supporters of the NDC in the region to maintain a joint and impregnable front all the time to ensure smooth development.

Mr Agbavitor entreated the party’s supporters to remain calm as they celebrated victory, even in the face of provocation from their political opponents.
