Free Wifi For SHS on Course-Dr. Bawumia

The process to connect all Senior high schools (SHS) in the country to free Wifi is on course, the Vice-President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, has said.

He said all things being equal, the process would be fully implemented next year.

Dr Bawumia said that when he launched the Aspirants Unite for Victory group for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Accra on Monday.

The promise for a free Wifi for all SHSs is contained in the NPP 2020 election manifesto.

The Group

The Aspirants Unite for Victory is a group of 220 unsuccessful parliamentary aspirants and 42 sitting MPs who lost the primaries of the NPP but who have buried their differences and put the defeat behind them and have joined forces to work to ensure victory for the NPP in the December elections.

Among the strategies they have adopted for the campaign are regional tours, constituency visits, health walks and also to be very active on social media.

Apathy

Dr Bawumia charged the unsuccessful parliamentary aspirants of the NPP to actively get on board the 2020 elections campaign to avoid voter apathy in the December elections.

He said they must join forces with President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and the aspiring MPs so that the roadmap for the party was duly achieved.

“We need a resounding victory for the President and MPs so put in 100 per cent effort so the roadmap is achieved,” the Vice-President told them.

While commending the group for the initiative which he described as remarkable, Dr Bawumia said,

“ you had the right to grumble but you overlooked your loss for the sake of President Akufo-Addo and the NPP”.

He said the unity exhibited by the group gave enough impetus to the party and so every effort would be made to support the group for a successful campaign.

He said the NPP had a team which was solidly knitted together for victory this year because it had stayed true to the people by delivering most of its promises.

He, however, stressed the need for unity at all times, saying, “ a house divided by itself cannot stand”.

Dr Bawumia advised the group to continue with the agenda of their movement beyond this year’s elections, saying, their coming together was a good sign for the demonstration of unflinching love for the NPP and urged them to continue to showcase their love for the party even more in opposition.
