The leader of the National Democratic Party (NDP), Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings, has pledged that her party is ready and committed to an open and participatory governance through decentralisation, should it win power in 2016.

“The NDP therefore envisages the creation of community organisation bureaus as appropriate extension of leadership,” she stated.

She made these remarks in while addressing students of the Methodist University College, Ghana, in Accra, during their ‘Political Week’ on the theme: “The economy and the prospects of the University graduate”.

She called for transparency, probity and accountability in the country to ensure that the economy provides meaningful prospects for graduates.

Mrs Rawlings however, expressed regret that instead of transparency, probity and accountability, what prevailed in the country were corruption, graft, looting and wanton dissipation of public funds.

According to her, Ghana’s constitution made provisions to safeguard the collective rights, freedoms and opportunities of all.
