Mr. Agbodza, in an address delivered on his behalf by Mr. Jerry Ameko, Adaklu Constituency National Democratic Congress Chairman at one of the presentation ceremonies at Adaklu Waya, noted that the NDC had better policies and vision for the education and health sectors and workers in general.
He urged the people, especially workers, to vote massively for the party in the 2024 general elections to enable it to redeem the country from the current economic difficulties.
The MP, who is also the Minority Chief Whip in Parliament, stated that workers, especially teachers and nurses, were indispensable assets in the growth and development of the country.
“They therefore need to be motivated and encouraged to enable them to put up their optimum best.”
Mr. Agbodza mentioned development projects he undertook in the district, including classroom blocks, health centres, teachers’ and nurses’ bungalows.
Besides, a lot of financial support was committed to the health and education sectors in the district, he said.
