Former general Secretary and Presidential Aspirant of the New Patriotic Party, Kwabena Agyei Agyepong has said that the country needs a NEW DAWN of astute political leadership with a Vision that inspires hope in the youth and rekindles the
faith of Ghanaians in our Constitutional Democracy as Ghana is at a crossroad.
He refers the NEW DAWN to a belief in small, lean government machinery that is efficient, effective, and primed to deliver to the aspirations and expectations of the Ghanaian people, enforcement of Law, Order, and Discipline coupled with a drastic penalty regime to deter potential offenders.
He emphasized that, the law should work to stop corruption, protect of individual and property rights to ensure compliance of regulations (Quality Control and Quality Assurance) in all aspects of our national life.
In a conference monitored by Top Radio reporter, Emmanuel Nii Afra Quakupong Sackey, the new dawn according to him means drastic reduction of the politicization of the civil and public services to restore meritocracy as It is time to bring an end to the wasteful seminars, workshops, forums, retreats and move into an implementation mode.
This means cutting waste in the public sector by ensuring that there is Value for Money in public procurement. Therefore, freeing vital resources to support economic empowerment of the youth through technical education, entrepreneurship
and self-reliance.
He made this assertion when he engaged the media after he has been vetted by the party’s presidential vetting committee at the campaign office in Accra.
