The lovely NDC family met Tuesday night at the Banquet Hall of the State House as President Mahama laid out the highlights of the NDC’s 2016 manifesto which would soon see the light of day.
The evening saw the President deliver a speech of the initiatives the party intends to implement once they are reelected during December’s polls.

Man of the hour Abraham Attah, is back in Ghana- arriving Friday morning after a short stay in the United States.
