Rally behind Dr.Bawumia and all NPP Parliamentary candidates- Mimi Duah tells youth
The Deputy National Women’s Organiser of the New Patriotic Party(NPP), Mimi Duah has charged the youth to rally massively behind the flagbearer and Vice President, Dr.Mahamudu Bawumia and all Parliamentary candidates of the party.
According to her, Dr.Bawumia has policies which set the youth of the country on a path to success.
She said most of their policies are youth oriented and have what it takes to empower Ghanaian youth to achieve their dreams.
Mimi Duah made these remarks at the ‘Girls Girls Meet Up’ event which took place at Patty’s Event Centre, East Legon in Accra on Sunday.
The Deputy National Women’s Organiser noted that many policies and programmes have successfully been implemented for which the citizens have reaped the benefits of these interventions.
For this reason, she urged the youth not to sit for the opposition to project a wrong narrative out there.
She therefore called on all sympathisers of the NPP to carry the message of the party’s policies to the people, adding that the NPP has demonstrated over the years that it is not selective but people centered.
“It is our responsibility to sell the message of the party to the people, but not allow the opposition to throw dust in the eyes of Ghanaians,” she said.
Mimi Duah, added that “Let’s recommend our party to people and get more volunteers and those willing to commit themselves to the course of breaking the eight to ensure that our flagbearer Dr.Bawumia wins and our parliamentary candidates within all the constituencies in the country emerge as winners.”
“We know what you can do, we know your capabilities as youth, the party has a strong believe in you,” she concluded and thanked all young ladies who thronged the venue to make the meetup a memorable one.

Minister for the Interior, Mubarak Mohammed Muntaka, has confirmed that former Chief Executive Officer of the Microfinance and Small Loans Centre (MASLOC), Sedina Tamakloe Attionu, is in prison and serving her jail term.
Speaking in an interview on Joy news, Mr. Muntaka dismissed claims that the former MASLOC boss was being held in a private location.
He said she has been in the custody of the state since she returned to Ghana.
“From the day Sedina came, she has been with us, and she’s serving her time,” he said.
The minister explained that the public is not usually told the specific prison where inmates, especially high-profile persons, are being held for security reasons.
He said even judges who sentence offenders do not necessarily know the specific prison where they are sent.
“If you want to visit her, you can write to the Prisons Service. They will talk to her, and if she is interested in you coming, she will let you come,” Mr. Muntaka stated.
According to him, disclosing the location of high-profile inmates could put their lives at risk, adding that some developed countries also keep such information confidential for security purposes.
His comments come amid public speculation over the whereabouts of Ms. Tamakloe Attionu following reports that she had returned to Ghana to begin serving her prison sentence.
