ALHASSAN TO CONTEST ONDFP TICKET ... Page 17

Story: George Folley Quaye, Wa

A 31-year-old Wa-based businessman, Illiasu Alhassan, has declared his intention to contest on the ticket of the Democratic Freedom Party (DFP) as its parliamentary candidate for Wa Central.
He observed that after a careful study of the political terrain, he had no option but to join the DFP since it was the party of the future.
"The New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) have all failed us; DFP holds the key to the future development of Ghana," he added.
Mr Alhassan, who described himself as a dye in the wool DFP supporter, was of the view that the race for Wa Central would be a foregone conclusion for DFP
"I have tested the waters and the people are clamouring for change and the best person to bring this change is Illiasu," he confidently told the Daily Graphic
Touching on his vision, he promised to concentrate on the education of the young ones since they were the future leaders of the country.
He promised to operate an open-door policy where each and everyone would be made to participate in the decision making process.
Mr Alhassan commended the leadership of the DFP for their achievement so far and urged them to work harder to ensure victory for the party next year.
