Mrs. Lordina Dramani Mahama, the wife of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Presidential Candidate, has paid a working visit to the Ketu North Constituency of the Volta Region to campaign for John Mahama and parliamentary candidate Edem Agbana.
Mrs Mahama, in what has been described as a very impactful visit to mobilise grassroots support, met some chiefs and queen mothers in the constituency, seeking their blessings and prayers for the NDC’s campaign. She introduced the NDC parliamentary candidate, Edem Agbana, to the traditional leaders, encouraging them to support him for a decisive victory.
The former first lady lauded the party’s constituency leadership, emphasising that Mahama would secure victory in December with their dedication and hard work. She reaffirmed her husband’s steadfast commitment to the Volta Region, assuring the people that their loyalty to the NDC would always be rewarded with vital development projects.
Known as a philanthropist and advocate for women’s and children’s welfare through her Lordina Foundation, Mrs Mahama underscored the significance of initiatives such as the Women’s Development Bank, the National Apprenticeship Programme, and the implementation of a 24-hour economic policy, particularly for women and the youth.
She assured women involved in small enterprises that they would gain access to affordable funding for their businesses under the Mahama administration.
At the Afife Health Centre, Mrs Mahama donated medical equipment to enhance healthcare delivery services. Dr. Sampson Mortty thanked the former first lady for her generous donation, adding that the timing of her contribution is excellent and will significantly alleviate the challenges faced by the health team.
He noted the persistent struggle with inadequate medical equipment and supplies and expressed confidence that the donated supplies would greatly enhance their capacity to deliver effective care.
Edem Agbana also thanked Mrs Mahama for her quick response to the plea to support the facility. He assured his constituents that a future Mahama administration would revitalise the health facility and provide additional resources to improve services.
