SPIO’S TEAM JOINS MILLS --- to undertake nationwide tour

The flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for the 2008 elections, Professor John Evans Atta Mills, has started a nation-wide one-on-one interaction with various groups and individuals.
The move is described as an effective way of disseminating information to ensure that his message goes down well with Ghanaians for a resounding electoral victory for the NDC.
Mr. Kwesi Ampah, who was with the Dr. Ekwow Spio-Garbrah campaign team prior to the NDC congress, disclosed this when he announced that he had joined the Prof. Mills communication team.
He said he, together with Mr. Amete-Quarmyne, also formerly or the Spio team, joined the flag bearer's team with the blessing of Dr. Spio-Garbrah to contribute their quota in securing a landslide victory for the Professor.
He said the move was also in fulfilment of Prof. Mills' declaration during the congress that all should forget about their differences and join hands to secure victory for the NDC to take Ghanaians out of the mess created by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government.
He said Prof. Mills would be meeting traditional and opinion leaders, professional bodies and other associations.
He said there was every indication that there had been a great change in the hearts of the voters in areas where the NDC flag bearer lost during the 2004 elections and among Ghanaians in general.
He explained that during their rounds the team was overwhelmed by the frustration and suffering expressed by the people as a result of the abysmal performance by the NPP government.
Mr. Ampah said it was incredible the rate at which the inhuman policies and programmes as well as untruth by the Kufuor administration had made life unbearable for a lot of Ghanaians.
He also described the reception given to Prof. Mills everywhere he had been as marvellous, saying that was a sign that victory would be secured.
