The flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress, John Dramani Mahama, has urged NPP's flagbearer Dr.
Bawumia to instruct NPP parliamentary candidates to remove all political posters from the District Road Improvement Programme (DRIP) equipment distributed nationwide.
The government's project, DRIP is a nationwide initiative designed to enhance road conditions across all 275 constituencies.
John Mahama while speaking at a rally in Yeji in the Pru East district of the Bono East Region contends that since the DRIP project is funded by taxpayers' money, it should not be utilized for political advertising. "It's the government's money, funded by the taxes, we all pay-whether you're NPP, CPP, Christian, or Muslim-everyone contributes.
They've used those taxes to import earth-moving equipment for road construction, and each district has been allocated some.
But now, we're seeing posters of NPP parliamentary candidates on the DRIP equipment. "I want to remind Akufo-Addo and Bawumia that they serve the entire country, not just the NPP.
The equipment doesn't belong to the party; it belongs to all Ghanaians. "No one has the right to place their posters on the DRIP equipment.
They must order the immediate removal of these posters, or we'll be forced to take action ourselves," he stated.
