Mr. Ablakwa touted some key and relevant aspect of the NDC’s People’s Manifesto saying, many of the afflictions, hardships and frustrations imposed by President Nana Akufo-Addo’s government would have long been remedied if NDC’s manifesto was launched two years ago.

Rational voters must be having a good laugh at these fruitless antics.” He said.
