Former President John Agyekum Kufuor has appealed to residents of Cape Coast in the Central Region not to sell their votes for pans, slippers and other freebies ahead of the general elections.
Some politicians do not respect people in the coastal areas and that is why they only provide them with pans, wire marsh, slippers, among others, to enable them win elections instead of undertaking developmental projects in the areas, according to him.
He added that the money was for the State and that the electorate should not allow politicians to influence them to vote for the wrong people to steer the affairs of the country.
Former President Kufuor gave the advice during a massive rally at Cape Coast over the weekend.
Thousands of supporters of the party thronged the venue to drum and dance to NPP songs. Members of the Asafo companies also performed brilliantly at the rally.
He added that the people in the area deserve better things since Cape Coast was the first capital of Ghana.
He indicated that the country has been endowed with a lot of natural resources but people are suffering due to bad governance.
Former President Kufuor described Nana Akufo-Addo as a good captain who can manage the country well with his good team.
“If you are not a good apprentice, you can never be a good master, so give Nana Addo the chance since he would not come and deceive Ghanaians but make the country a better place to stay, Nana Addo has a lot of investors who are ready to come and invest in the country immediately he is given the mandate,” he said.
Nana Akufo-Addo noted that the NPP government would save Ghanaians from misery.
He said he would establish more cold stores and landing sites to boost the fishing activities in the area if given the nod.
In attendance were former Ministers of State, former Districts and Municipal Chief Executives (MCE), regional and constituency executives of the party, among others.

NDC KNOWS HOW TO USE THE STATE MONEY TO BUY THE CONSCIENCE OF EC COMISSIONERS, EC OFFICIALS, POLLING AGENTS TO RIG THE ELECTION. THE CONSCIENCE OF THESE PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE TRUSTED. NPP SHOULD OPEN THEIR EYES WIDE AND CHECK THE BALLOT PAPERS, PRINTING OF PINK SHEETS AND MANIPULATION OF FIGURES. NPP SHOULD BE AT THE POLLING STATIONS AND WATCH THE POLLING AGENTS CAREFULLY, FILLING OF PINK SHEETS, SENDING THE PINK SHEET TO COLLATION CENTRES AND COMPILLATION AND TALLY OF ALL THE FIGURES. NO ONE SHOULD BE TRUSTED IN THE ELECTION PROCESS.
I pity most Ghanaians....no wonder mahama said Ghanaians easily forget..what better policies has ndc implemented....think oooo think ghanafuo
THE NPP PARTY DOES NOT EVEN RESPECT THE CAPE COASTERS.KUFFOUR WAS TELLING THEM THEY WERE RECEIVING FISH PANS AND SLIPPERS.HE SEES THE CAPE COASTERS AS CHEAP.
Sorry oooh. No damage control here please. You've already advised Ghanaians on who to vote for. Did I hear you say investors? Oooh, they are already here. Massa, you cannot eat back your words oooh. We heard you clearly and by the actions of the divisive man, he also confirmed same. I will vote for someone who is NOT FULL of tension and also will not divide us. JM Toaso. You can return home with the unsold cassava and turn him into something else. Maybe "All Die Be Die" since he loves such things best. JM onaaa po!
All should note that former President Rawlings DID'T campaign for the NDC in 2012 and the NDC won on their won strength and the marketability of their candidate, JM. This time around no one is being forced to come join the campaign. It's a moving train. If you fail to join the train will still move. Nana Addo, am sorry is NOT marketbale. He is just not selling. JM is a strong brand. A silent majority out there will return him to power. People out of hatred criticize him and even insult his person. But has not physically dealth with any of them. Try such a thing on Nana, and you'll see. Under his watch people in his own party have been maimed. What a dangerous old man?
Mahama and his NDC can even give out free houses and private helicopters, Ghanaians will still vote against them... The level of corruption and incompetence is just too high for another 4 years. CHANGE MUST COME.
Boat let me tell you there is a proverb which says better late than never. at least he has jumped into the game his last in speech can sway floating voters who once vote for him to be president .how about you ?has former president rawlings jumped into the game yet?will he at all? JM TWASO NANA BEBA
The old man has jumped into the game. But we shall do according to what you us - that 'we should not vote for someone who will divide us'. Someone full of tension, we must avoid. So, we shall honour your call. You might have come in rather late. JM Toaso!
