Mr. Tettey Amankwah aka Mr. Tee, one of the party organisers urged the youth to vote wisely in the general elections as Nana Akuffo Addo has the youth at his heart.
Mr. Lamptey, aka ‘Taller’ advised the youth not to involve themselves in violent acts, but try their best to live peaceful with their political opponents as the elections is not a do and die affair, but just to find competent leadership for the nation.
