The Convention People’s Party (CPP), led by presidential candidate Nana Frimpomaa, has today launched a transformative policy document known as the “Women Manifesto”, designed to radically change Ghana’s economic, social, and political landscape. The manifesto, unveiled at a vibrant and well-attended press conference in Accra, outlined a clear path to eradicating poverty, empowering Ghanaians, and making Ghana truly the property of its people, not foreign interests.
Key Highlights from the Women Manifesto:
1. Eradication of Poverty through AgroSure and Modern Farming
The CPP’s flagship policy promises to phase out traditional hoe-and-cutlass farming by introducing AgroSure, an initiative aimed at modernizing agriculture. The government intends to purchase all farm produce from Ghanaians, mimicking the success of the Cocoa sector. Farmers will move from subsistence to commercial farming, benefiting from a shareholder model where they become owners of cooperative farming ventures.
2. GhanaBa Shares
In a groundbreaking move to empower citizens, the GhanaBa Shares program will provide 20 million Ghanaians with a GH₵20,000 stake, encouraging collective ownership and economic empowerment. This program is a direct challenge to foreign ownership of Ghana’s resources and a call for local people to become the true owners of the nation.
3. Government at Your Doorstep: Localized Governance
The Women Manifesto introduces the concept of 40,000 Government-at-Your-Doorstep Centres at every polling station. These centers will facilitate direct communication between the people and government, with citizens empowered to raise concerns, provide solutions, and engage with local government on crucial issues, including disability support, funding concerns, and property rights.
4. Inclusive Governance for All
The manifesto emphasizes inclusivity by reserving one seat at each center for people with disabilities. This policy ensures that no citizen is left behind, and that governance is truly for all, by all.
5. Free Education to University Level
As part of her commitment to education, Nana Frimpomaa’s manifesto promises free education for all children up to the university level. This radical shift aims to address the current challenges of high student dropout rates and the struggle for access to tertiary education.
6. Restoring Ghana’s Historic Assets
In a bold statement, Nana Frimpomaa declared that the CPP would demand the return of all assets acquired by the party under Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, referring specifically to properties scattered across the country that belong to the Ghanaian people. “It is a demand, not a plea,” Nana Frimpomaa stated.
7. Reversing the Flagstaff House to its Historic Name
In line with her vision of restoring Ghana’s historical legacy, Nana Frimpomaa promised to revert the Jubilee House back to its original name, the Flagstaff House, honoring Ghana’s independence and heritage.
8. Unity and Strong Support
The event saw over 1,000 party members, media, and supporters from all regions, signaling strong grassroots support for Nana Frimpomaa’s candidacy. A highly charged and vibrant atmosphere marked the occasion as the CPP showcased its unity and determination.
9. A Colorful and Well-Organized Event
Passersby and attendees were struck by the colorful and well-organized nature of the event, with vibrant banners, picture cards, and pull-ups that created an engaging and memorable experience for all.
10. Broad Support Across Political Spectrum
The event was graced by key political figures, including Comrade Kwame Nkrumah Botoe, CPP General Secretary, Hajia Hamdatu, the Women’s Organizer Comrade Felicia, and Dr. Asiseh, an Independent presidential candidate who, along with his running mate, dropped their candidacy to support Nana Frimpomaa’s bid for the presidency.
Conclusion:
The launch of the Women Manifesto marks a bold and unprecedented step in Ghana’s political evolution, as Nana Frimpomaa and the CPP seek to reshape the country’s future through economic empowerment, inclusive governance, and a strong commitment to the welfare of all Ghanaians.
