Planting For Food & Jobs Will increase NPP's Electoral Fortunes By 5%

The implementation of the Government's flagship Planting for Food and Jobs (PFJ) policy is expected to enhance the electoral fortunes of the ruling New Patriotic Party by adding 5% more votes to the party in the 2020 general elections.

The Special Aide to the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the NPP, Andy Owusu believes the PFJ programme is the best social intervention policy ever introduced by any government in the country's history, particularly for the Ghanaian farming population.

According to him, the programme has direct bearing on the country's economy considering the fact that agriculture continues to be the mainstay of Ghana's economy.

He predicted that the ruling New Patriotic Party will win massively in the 2020 elections, stressing that the PFJ programme alone will contribute 5% more to the party's electoral share.

Andy Owusu, who is a strong advocate of the program is calling on Ghanaians to pray for the Minister of Food and Agriculture, adding that Ghanaians will remember Hon. Akoto for his immense contribution to the growth and development of this country just like his farher, the Late Baffour Akoto is being honoured for his role in Ghana's democracy.
