AKYIANU DONATES TO NDC (PAGE 13, OCT 22, 2010)

A LEADING member of the National Democratic Congress and Ghana’s Ambassador to Serbia, Mr Sam Vallis Akyianu, has provided free accommodation for the Cape Coast Constituency.
The facility used to be the dwelling place of Mr Akyianu’s late mother.
Speaking at a ceremony at the presentation of the premises to the party on Wednesday, Mr Akyianu said the gesture was in fulfilment of her late mother’s commitment and loyalty to the President, Professor John Evans Atta Mills.
Mr Akyianu recalled her late mother’s desire to vote for and see Professor Mills becoming President before her death.
He said her mother dedicated herself to the party to the extent that she would never go to bed until he, Akyianu, had returned home each time he went on party assignment when he was the Central Regional Chairman of the NDC.
He said the party could use the facility as long it desired and until the time that it acquired a piece of land to build its own constituency offices.
He urged the party to make good use of the facility to enable the party to retain the seat and win the 2012 elections.
Mr Kwame Tabi Akyianu a member of the Akyianu family of Cape Coast pledged the support of the family for Professor Mills and the NDC and called on the supporters of the party to unite for victory in the 2012 elections.
The Chairman of the Cape Coast Constituency of the NDC, Mr Christian Elvis Amoasah, commended Mr Akyianu and his family for the gesture and promised to make good use of the facility to enable the party to retain power.
Mr Ricket Hagan, who donated four pick-ups for Professor Mills’ 2008 campaign, promised to provide furniture for the office to enhance operations of the party.
Mr Justice Boison, an NDC activist in the Central Region, also promised to provide furniture for the office.
