Mr. Alhassan Yakubu Tali, Chairman of the New Patriotic Party(NPP) in Germany and a native of Tolon has noted that the much talked about Better Ghana Agenda by the NDC government has remained a mirage that only exists in the minds of NDC propagandists. According to him, the people of Tolon in the Northern Region for instance are yet to witness any sign of the Better Ghana Agenda. He therefore called on the Mahama administration to fulfill its campaign promise by connecting all the villages in the Tolon constituency to the National Grid Mr. Yakubu Tali made this appeal while addressing the end of year get together of the Asanteman Association in Dusseldorf over the week end He pointed out that the Tolon Constituency remains one of the most deprived constituencies in terms of infrastructural development, road network, health facilities, education and sanitation He explained that the extension of electricity to these deprived communities will not only stimulate economic activity but more importantly reduce the level of poverty and help stem rural-urban migration Touching on the economic crisis in Ghana Mr. Yakubu Tali blamed the current abysmal state of the economy on bad governance, poor leadership, mismanagement, policy incoherence and widespread corruption He stated „the Mahama-led government not only demonstrated gross incompetence and ineptitude since assuming the reins of power but it has also become an epitome of corruption and plundered the national coffers Mr. Yakubu-Tali was however, optimistic that all is not lost yet adding that 2016 presents an opportunity for Ghanaians to bring back the NPP under Nana Akuffo-Addo to once again get the economy moving in the right direction....
