The stage has been set for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to launch its Manifesto in Takoradi for the 2024 general election.
The manifesto is touted to profess bold solutions to the country’s economic and social challenges in the near future should Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the Party’s Flagbearer, win the nation’s highest seat.
In between time, scores of supporters and well wishers have thronged the Ghana Secondary Technical School (GSTS), the venue for the launch, clad in party paraphernalia with full enthusiasm, awaiting the start of the event.
The diplomatic Corp, party hierarchy, chiefs, distinguished guests and party supporters are seated.
The venue has been decorated in NPP colours, while some dignitaries, including Ministers of state, Members of Parliament (MPs) and other party big wigs trooped in.
The Assembly Hall of the GSTS is full to capacity with some participants having to take shelter outside.
Some of the youths are in jubilant mood, carrying placards with the inscriptions: “Youth for Bawumia, bold solution for our future”,
“Bawumia for President 2024”, and “It is possible” among others.
Traders of all kinds of wares are also cashing in with some selling party souvenirs: flags, hats, t-shirts, scarfs, and handkerchiefs.
Food vendors, sachet water and ice cream sellers are not left out, taking advantage of the charged atmosphere and euphoria of the manifesto launch to make some good sales.
Internal security is top-notch with every aspect of the programme going on smoothly.
