The Upper East Regional cadres of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) have called on members of the Party to take bold measures towards the effective consolidation of the government’s ‘Reset Agenda’.
Mr Daniel Adoliba Akologo, the Upper East Regional Chairman of the United Cadres Front (UCF), who made the call, noted that the way forward was to take bold measures towards ensuring the effective consolidation of the ‘Reset Agenda.’
He described the agenda as “A window of opportunity for the good people of Ghana” delivered by the Mahama-led-government to rescue the country from its economic challenges.
Mr Akologo spoke on the theme: “Consolidating the Reset Agenda: Reflections on the gains of the 31st December Revolution”, at the 44th Anniversary celebration of the 31st December Revolution held in Sandema.
The event brought together Cadres of the Party from across the Region including Mr James Agalga, the Member of Parliament (MP) for the area, Madam Anne Musah, the District Chief Executive for Builsa South, Regional and Constituency Executives, among others.
The UCF Chairman noted that the theme was relevant, and called for action saying, “We must align the enduring ideals of the revolution with our contemporary governance priorities and our party’s ‘Reset Agenda’ to ensure inclusive growth and national transformation.
“We owe it as a duty to restore and protect the legacy that we fought for, from the beginning. This requires: Zero tolerance for corruption and ensuring that all individuals in public service are held accountable, regardless of their status or political leanings,” he added.
He noted that protecting the legacy further required “Empowering the citizenry to be part of the decision-making process, ensuring that the government remains a servant of the people and prioritizing social justice to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor, and create opportunities for all Ghanaians.”
Mr Akologo emphasised that “The struggle continues. Cadres may come, cadres may go, but the Revolution has come to stay.
We must continue to remain strong and resolute. It is our collective responsibility to work towards a nation where probity and accountability are not just slogans, but the life experience of every Ghanaian.”
Mr Agalga congratulated organizers for the programme noting that, “For a very long time, 31st December was almost forgotten. The day came and passed without the due recognition that important milestone in our history deserves.
“I think that for a programme like this to be staged, justice has been done to the occasion because the National Democratic Congress was birthed by the 31st December Revolution,” he said.
According to the MP, the events that led to the Revolution was attributed to the decay and break in the moral fiber of the Ghanaian society, “Corruption became endemic, there was so much theft in our country and that took us backward.
“Our development stagnated and Jerry Rawlings answered to the call to liberate us. In 1992, when it became very compelling for us to return to democracy, the Revolution birthed the 1992 Constitution, and of course the NDC, of which all of us are beneficiaries of that singular important event,” he said.
Mr Agalga said they had the collective duty and responsibility to rally behind those who found it expedient to organize the programme and called for action to bridge the gap between some members of the Party who do not identify with the cadre’s front.
