Nana Ampomah said there was the need to propagate the good policies and programmes of the NPP to the people to enable them to appreciate the work the party has done in its two terms of office.
"Let's go from this walk today and tell the electorate what we have done for the eight years they gave us in government and appeal to them to vote for Dr Bawumia and our Parliamentary candidates on December 7 for us to continue with the development of the country," she stressed.
