Let all Ghanaians and residents of our nation know this undisputed fact that the CPP built a nation of peace, tranquility and an economy of hope, freedom, justice and prosperity. But the saboteurs came to destroy them. In nine years CPP built a nation that was to become a middle income economy by 1983 and an advanced country by 1998. The combined 28 years of NPP & P/NDC achievements cannot even equate 7% of CPP's 9 years. This is a painful fact.

Almost all the factories and institutions above and many more were irresponsibly sold and destroyed by P/NDC to their cronies under the nonsensical Structural Adjustment Program (SAP & ERP) The NPP dishonestly handed over remaining to the so-called “investors”.

In the coming elections, a vote for P/NDC is a vote for JJ Rawlings, meaning a continuation of 19 years misrule, intimidation and destruction, annihilation of our educational system, and infrastructure. P/NDC had no economic policy and therefore had to borrow one from the IMF/World Bank- a policy that sought/seeks to make an economy subservient, dependent and enslaved to the Western Capitalist domination.
