According to him, the NDC, which currently has 16 out of the 23 parliamentary seats in the Central region, is going to win all the seats come 2016.
He noted that contrary to indications that the current economic hardship in the country portends doom for the NDC in the next elections, it will shock its critics by winning convincingly, especially in the Central region.
“Yes times are hard and people may be complaining but per the social contract we signed with the good people of this country, we believe that we are executing all that we promised and that is going to propel our victory in 2016,” he said.
“Also the new team we have in place is going to work really hard to ensure that victory is the NDC’s come 2016,” he stated.
The vociferous chairman made this assertion in an interview with Today at his office in Cape Coast last Monday.
Mr. Jacobs revealed that the president was embarking on massive development in the region and was out to ensure that the region gets its fair share of the national cake.
He revealed that five districts in the region alone benefitted from the president’s community based Senior High School (SHS) project which is about 40% complete.
“The numbers of CHPS compounds have been increased to ensure accessibility healthcare while schools under trees are gradually being eradicated in the region.
New roads are being constructed in residential areas and old ones being redesigned to ease traffic as well as the Cape Coast Stadium and Kotokuraba Market under construction.
These are some of the indications that the NDC has delivered on its promise and will therefore win in the 2016 elections,” he explained.
The chairman disclosed that massive infrastructural development would soon be witnessed in Cape Coast while plans were being made to introduce masquerading, Asafo and other unique cultural traits of the people to add up to the tourism potential in the region.
“There’s also going to be massive development in the agricultural sector in the region and more factories are going to be established here because of the potential the region has to create more employment for the people in the area,” he said.
He added that these projects and many more in the pipeline were expected to generate economic vibrancy in Cape Coast and the Central Region in general.
“President Mahama is loved by the people because he walks that talk and we believe that the economic situations of Ghanaians will start getting better from April 2015 because we are seeing improvement in our fiscal policies,” he assured.
