Some residents in Nima poured out onto the
streets to welcome the Flagbearer of the New
Patriotic Party, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to
the Ayawaso East constituency, as he resumed
his tour of the Greater Accra Region.
In an interaction with Muslim clerics at the
Alesuna Mosque, Nana Akufo-Addo noted that
when the time is due for elections, there are some
who, for political gain, will infiltrate Zongo
communities and seek to foist division, on
religious lines, amongst the people.
“They will say Akufo-Addo hates Muslims, does
not like people resident in Zongo communities, so
as to put fear in you. There is not an iota of truth
in any of this. Of all the presidential candidates
contesting this year’s elections, I’m the only one
who has selected a Muslim to be my running
mate,” Nana Akufo-Addo said.
The NPP flagbearer further explained that his
choice of Dr. Bawumia, since 2008, was because
“with Christianity and Islam being the two
dominant religions in Ghana, unity amongst these
two religions will help spur on the country’s
development.”
“The Muslim I chose is not just a Muslim, but a
very brilliant Muslim, who can help develop the
nation with his indepth knowledge.”
