A group made up of over 7000 National Democratic Congress (NDC) youth in the Volta region has scheduled July 14, 2015 to demonstrate against President John Mahama and his government.
Speaking to Starrfmonline.com, Wednesday, Robert Adjase Tetteyfio, who is the national chairman of the group calling itself ‘Disappointed Youth of NDC’ said they are going to embark on a “mass defection” to the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).
“The regional executives are not listening to us so we have to hit the streets,” Tetteyfio said. “We are dying in this country and there is so much corruption going on.”
He said: “This development has come as a result of the government’s inability to rescue the country’s economic crisis, coupled with the following, erratic power supply, high level of corruption, massive unemployment and neglect of the region.”
The demonstration is themed: “If the fool becomes wise, then the game is over.”
“We are calling on all youth of the ruling party who also feel the heat in the country to join us, as well as everyone who sees the importance in this demonstration to join us.
“The event, per our plan; we shall converge at the Swansea Beach at Denu to Swansea Avenue Junction through the principal street of Aflao township to the main border,” Tetteyfio whose group has been in existence over the past two years added.
