he National Nasara coordinator of the ruling New Patriotic Party
(NPP) Abdul Aziz Haruna Futah, has said policies, programmes and works
of the NPP Government under President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has
shown that the party cares more about the Zongo community than other
parties in the country.
He stated that, the NPP government, in its short
period in office, has proven to be more dedicated to meeting the
development needs of Zongo dwellers and Muslims than previous
governments, and the party is becoming attractive to members of the
Zongo community.
“At first we thought it was the NDC that had the Muslim community and
Zongos at heart, but what the NPP government have done shows that it is
the NPP that really cares about Muslims,”
Abdul Aziz Haruna Futah told
Reynold Agyemang on ‘Pae Mu Ka’ on Accra-based Kingdom FM 107.7
“Now that we have all seen that NPP accepts and loves Muslims, I will
ask that government helps Muslims to acquire the best and highest
possible knowledge, we can also contribute to Ghana’s development and
who knows, one day we may have a Muslim President.
Describing President Akufo-Addo as a “Messiah of Zongos”, Aziz Futah
said Akufo-Addo must be praised for his efforts to develop Zongo
communities.
Aziz Haruna Futah also explained that the establishment of the Inner
Cities and Zongo Development Ministry was aimed at making the inner
cities and Zongos a central part of the national development agenda and
avoid the situation where they were the exclusive zones for breeding
despair and hopelessness.
